Deano1983 · 18th December 2003, 14:36

Yer aint it, at least its still under warranty, only think is think they will try and use the fact that i have got it lowered against me, but that aint anythin to do with it!!

Ouch!!!!

stus16vsaxo · 18th December 2003, 19:17

if ur cars lowered they will probably tell u to f**k off, im sure that will invalidate ur warranty

Scott^p · 19th December 2003, 02:52

it should only invalidate warranty within the suspension

Raysax · 19th December 2003, 12:44

Holy shit balls!! If it invalidates ur warrenty thatll b quite xpensive wnt it, jus wot u nd afta xmas!!! Sorry 2 hear m8.

Deano1983 · 19th December 2003, 20:11

yer i know shit or wot, i asked citreon b4 i had it lowered and it invalidates the suspension, drive shaft and gear box warrenty so i shud be okay, theres no way am letin them fob me off by sayin any different, its obviously nothin to do wiv the lowerin, how can it be. If they try and fob me off il be pissed and i wont b leavin til they sort it out!!

I was told i could lower my car and keep the warranty if i used saxo parts.......Do citroen do lowering springs etc?
Distraction from the point.......Ouch - Expensive!!

Sorry to hear about that.
Hope it's sorted quick and with as little hassel as possible mate.

Found out wot it is, go a leak in the power steering sum where the flud has all gone, put sum in yesterday and was about to take is for a spin and after i got it half way down the drive and it went again, looked on the drive and it had sprayed everywhere. Problem is in the manual it says do not drive without sum fluid in cus it can f*ck up ur motor. Il ave to ring citreon and tell either u pick it up or il drive it but if it f*cks up the steering am not payin anything!!

When you lowered your car did you move the power steering fluid pipe???? Maybe you have worn through it.

Keir · 22nd December 2003, 20:12

Yeah, MK2 and lowering = worn PAS pipe if you don't move it.

The people who did the lowering should have done it.

Scott^p · 22nd December 2003, 21:33

to drive it could you not just unplug the power steering motor? When my pump died i had to drive it for a while with no power steering before it could get fixed. Just makes the steering much heavier
