HimBigChief's 406 Breaking - Definately this time!

[HimBigChief]

Will do Pilch, how are you planning on paying and I shall send the according details.

CalamityJames, pretty sure the dipstick on mine is knackered too.

OdinEidolon - Drop links I can sort, wing mirrors aren't retractable I'm afraid, and which rear lights? I've got 2 sets, the clear version and the crystal version. Pretty sure the discs will raise the postage cost due to weight, IIRC they weigh about 15kgs or so. What I can do is weigh the box before and after the discs and if they don't affect the price, I can include them free, otherwise if you're happy to pay the difference in cost (if any) then I can sort that too.

Omega - Are you still after these bits? Got them here now ready to wrap and send if you're ready.

What's the difference between the two rear lights type? Piccies of both may help. May you give me your VIN so I check brakes compatibility?

[Pilch]

how do you want paying mate! Paypal, bank transfer or carrier pigeon...

[jonsowman]

Couple of bits I'm after:

1) What head unit does this have in it? Is it this one: http://imgur.com/3LYHM

2) After the MFD and passenger wing mirror ambient temperature sensor.

3) Nearside rear door moulding.

4) Instrument panel. (Related: was the oil level sensor originally fitted to your car, or did you fit it yourself?)

Prices for the above please?

Cheers.

[HimBigChief]

The headunit that was in it has been painted in Cossack Grey to match the rest of the dash trim, plus I think it was different to the one in the pic you gave as it didn't have a built in display, it used the MFD.

I'd rather sell the whole mirror assembly instead of just the sensor, however I'm pretty sure I've got a sensor kicking around somewhere so I'll see if I can locate that. If I can find the sensor, I'll do that and the MFD for £25.

Which door moulding are you after? The main one on the door? If so, say £5?

Instrument panel would be £20, and the oil level sensor was already on the car when I got it, so I assume it is standard fit. It's standard on the 306 HDi's so I assume it's the same on the 406.

[OdinEidolon]

Still interested in the stuff I listed mate. Do the pads have the low pads level warning contact?

So basically I want the power (on/off) button from the radio. It's the same between the MFD models and the inbuilt LCD models. Are you willing to sell this on its own? If not, could I have a price for the entire headunit, which I'll pay, but just post me the button?

I've got hold of an MFD, but if you can find the sensor, I'll gladly take that off your hands.

Yep the main one, the plain grey plastic strip running across the door exterior. Mine's detached at the rear. £5 is great, will have that thanks!

Also interested in the air recycle/recirculation actuator, if yours still works. They're a common failure (as I'm sure you know) and mine's just died.

I'll get back to you shortly about the instrument cluster and the oil level sensor, need to examine whether my car has the right wiring in place to install this. What trim is yours? Mine is LX (without rear electric windows) -- is there any way to find out whether the oil level sensor is fitted without digging around in the engine bay?

[HimBigChief]

Eidolon - I can't remember off the top of my head, and looking after the little one today so I may not get chance to check until tomorrow.

The 2 different types of rear lights are the clear ones and the crystal ones. One set is white/clear, and the other set has had the jagged bits removed from inside the inside of the lenses to give them a smooth and crystal style appearance.

jonsowman - I think I may have a spare power button, so I'll see what I can find. Which actuator are you on about? The climate control worked perfectly when I had the car on the road, so I see no reason why anything should be broken now.

Ah if yours has climate control then don't worry, I'm sure the actuator is different.

If you can find the radio power button and the temperature sensor that'd be great. I'll also have the door moulding for £5. How much for the lot?

Still trying to work out whether mine has the oil level sender fitted, impossible to see down the back of the block. Could someone with servicebox find this out?

Thanks!

My deal with the MFD has fallen through so I'll take it and the temp sensor for £25 in addition to the radio power button and the N/S/R door moulding. Could I be cheeky and ask for the 15-pin connector for the back of the MFD as well? (I'll need this for retrofitting).

How much would you want for the wiper stalk with the trip computer pushbutton? If not too much I might as well grab this too.

I've also just noticed that my door sill seals are in pretty poor condition, how much for near side front and offside front? See attached picture for the seal I'm on about.

Cheers mate.

[Pilch]

Those seals run the entire length of the car!

[jonsowman]

Well done that man! Stupid me. I'll take both sides then please, depending on how much you're after for them HimBigChief

[HimBigChief]

I'll need to check them, pretty sure they're worn and frayed but I will check when I get chance. Will probably be wednesday as I'm off work on childcare duties on wednesdays now.

[jonsowman]

Cool, no problem. Let me know how much you're after if they're in alright condition.

Did you manage to find a radio power button and a temp sensor?

Also if you could give me a price for the wiper stalk with the trip computer "switch function" button, that'd be excellent.

I hate to ask, but how much shipping for the radiator and bottom hose? Mine's looking like it will need replacing shortly

Thanks a lot for your help with this!

Door you still have the doorcards? How much postage if so to Cheshire? And forgive my ignorance, D9 is the facelift? You'd think after 6yrs I might know by now..
