I think this might make it easier: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-xsara ... 1e67ed4012 but ffs, why is an English company selling it cheaper in French?

Do they break a lot then?

[lozz]

Cheers steve,
much apreciated that, iwas going to hit the buy it now button but was confused on the french

Do they break alot?
according to citroen dealer, they will break almost on every picasso after 2 or 3yrs,
they only want something like £220 for anew mech,
breakers yards dont have drivers side, neither does ebay

last one that cameup on ebay was £90 secound hand excl motor
hence why im going with the cable method

[lozz]

What a complete toss pot that seller was,

sent me some cheap plastic shite thatl snap cables thats for a Xsara not xsara picasso,
theyve just thrown anything in a bag there ya go,

icouid of made the same up from some Bmx brake cables thats what it looks like theyre making them out of, Twats

if they where abit nearer they wouid be wearing one round there neck

[Pilch]

Droite = Right

Gauche = Left

My french is starting to improve since i've started doing quad racing with lots of the french guys, better get better soon as i go over to france in January for a practice!

Google translate worked fine for me in the full translation it all....


Perhaps message them after seeing this bit...

Errrr, well done?

[lozz]

Sent them loads of messages no reply.

there feedback is crap just like there parts,
its catch 22 send the stuff back pay for postage again,
and then they can charge to send replacements out .

more trouble than its worth, imight just leave them the shitiest feedback ever,. and just fire the junk they sent me in the wheelie bin best place for it,

phoned the main agents today, and they want over £370 incl vat for a replacement window mech
this is going to be an expensive car by the time im finished putting it right more than likely the plan of selling it wont work out now, iwill loose £500 or so, feking cars

sorry rant over,

[steve_earwig]

What's actually wrong with it?

[lozz]

What's actually wrong with it?

The usual problem, the top plastic guide fails, cable goes off its channel on the worm drive thing on the motor and snaps the cables,
been to loads of breakers and every one theyve had in the drivers side mech is goosed,
same with ebay, they only have rears,and passenger side front so when they do go on ebay by off chance they want an instant £80 -~£90 because they know how hard they are to get hold of but if ipaid that icouid end up inthe bin, a 10 -12yr old part is not worth that sort of money idont think,
but going off the stealer prices imight have to take the gamble,

[steve_earwig]

Ahh, nothing like a good bit of design. Absolutely nothing like it at all

Damn, I was thinking perhaps I could get you one here but they're different for left-hookers They'd probably want silly money for them anyway

[lozz]

Thanks for the thought steve,

ithink iwill go buy one from the stealers and just keep the car for ayear or so
was planning on going back to a 406 ~but dosent look like thats hapening now wished inever bought this picasso,

[highlander]

Shouldn't be too hard to find someone with a 406 willing to part-ex for a Picasso. People seem to like these big people carriers, especially those with more than 1 kid.

hi mate,
ive already had a few offers. trouble is the 406s uphere are not looked after, full of dents & skanky smoked out interiors
icouidnt justify swapping something thats half decent & well maintained for something thats been abused,

[lozz]

igot a email back off the ebay seller,
it was very short,

send it us back so we can inspect it and we may consider refund,
they wouidnt answer my Question as to why they had sent me the wrong part, no apologies
by the time ive paid for postage etc to send it back it wouidnt be worth the hastle so ijust left them bad feedback,

chances are if idid send it back they wouid just crack on that they havent recieved it,

[FarmerPug]

you can do royal mail recorded to avoid the i didn't get it back from the seller, at the end of the day it still works out a lot cheaper than from the stealers.
Have you any service box style pictures of the part you need, i have old window regulators from all the doors of the 406, if its possible to use the parts from one of them, ill try taking one apart.
What about getting a breaking car, is the prices of picassos down enough yet, here is the cheapest one on gumtree, cheap cars are not as cheap with the scrap value being so high.
