Service Box Question

[Doggy]

Is there a method for looking up which models a particular part no. was used on?
I'm trying to find what cars were originally fitted with the 'correct' 6-speed gear knob, black leather/aluminium, (2403AH).
Anybody know?

TIA

Stick it in the search box

Into Service Box, select any car, part number into the search box - it'll either come up with results for the car you're looking at or it won't, either way you can then look for parts across all cars by selecting (...ummm... hold on...) "Launch the search on all vehicle families" - it'll give you a list of cars:

1 document(s) found for 2008
1 document(s) found for 607
1 document(s) found for 308 (T9)
1 document(s) found for 307
3 document(s) found for 308
1 document(s) found for 607 RESTYLING
1 document(s) found for 307 RESTYLING
1 document(s) found for 3008
3 document(s) found for Expert 3
9 document(s) found for 807
1 document(s) found for 208
1 document(s) found for 407
1 document(s) found for 5008

The model number is a link, if you want to see which car(s) it's talking about you can click it and it'll bring up which it is. Then you can click the "launch the search on all vehicle families" again to get back to the list.

Do you have Citroen Service?

Hold on...

Is this the knob you are looking for? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-C5-Fa ... 53feb9e700

Many thanks, steve.

Not sure if it's the right one, (should have a lift symbol for reverse, which is maybe spitting hairs), looks too small in diameter - maybe it's just the 'badge' off the top?

I'll give them a ring......

More like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gear-lever-kn ... 3a84a69927

What is this, crap picture Sunday?

Not that I'm suggesting you buy these (especially not that one, same price as the real thing )

[Doggy]

That is the real thing, (cheaper to go to Pug than pay the postage).
I might call for a real price, since i've found it different to SB on a few occasions

[steve_earwig]

That is the real thing

Oh yeah, durrr

Item code: 2403AH

This is the same as my 407 one.

Eric, I'll take a look in the breakers where I got the other stuff from tomorrow, there was a 407 SW awaiting clearance, maybe it's ready for breaking.

Does the gear knob just unscrew?

[Doggy]

Thank's John, I'd appreciate you taking a look, but I think the 407 is a bright chrome finish and the 406 is matt alumium style.

(I guess you now have both, so maybe you're best placed to tell)!

AFAIK it just pulls off, but takes a bit of shifting + precautions to avoid embossing your forehead with the gear change diagram.

My 407 has a shiny chrome type finish, but the 406 has a shiny black finish with shiny chrome finish numbers.

My 1.8 petrol had a shiny black finish with shiny chrome finish numbers.

My Coupe has something that looks exactly like the 407 black-on-aluminium one, except that it has 5 gears plus lift-reverse, not 6 gears plus lift-reverse.

Only just managed to get round to the scrap yard today.

Gear knob has already gone...as has most of the car, very little left on it already

Not to worry John, and thank you for trying.
