Citroen Parts Are Hard To Source Now

anyone have the same feeling? i called up ph auto and they are not keen to stock up parts for peugeot and citroen liao.

i'm trying to look for absorbers and only Asli Auto has it. Other shops (2 out of 10) are only having Record brand only.

anyone has new contacts to source parts?

how abt tony euromotive?

Thought zx and xantia models shouldnt hv any problems as there are still plenty on the road.
Wonder what's gonna happen in 10 years time.

yup .. tony is carrying the oris but only 2 sets left .. in the whole malaysia

i wonder if directional still sells citroen parts? since they are still selling xsara picassos

if you are getting the oris front abs from Tony, pls be aware that they are quite hard compared to old design. i checked with my mechanic, he said that the front abs nowadays are harder than previous design.

yea, ask me about it.....

yes. mine as well. so do others that my mechanic has changed recently and mind you, he doesn't get his parts from Tony, so it is different sources.

Looks like Citroen/Peugeot made one absorbers for various models...such as different ZX models, Berlingo, etc.
If i'm not wrong, previously, even within the different ZX models have different part number (absorbers), different configuration.

ZX absorbers used to be OIL. The newer model we bought is OIL & GAS, which gives a harder. It can be so hard that whenever i drive through holes, trench that goes across the road, the joinings on flyover bridges, etc...it feels like as if there isn't any absorbtion. And now, my rear door panel starting to rattle whenever i drive over bad surfaced road.

I wonder if PH Auto still carries the SACH absorbers for ZX.

my mechanic now recommends whoever wants a soft ride, to go hunt for those new old-stocks. haha

I suspect the new originals are meant for the Citroen Berlingo/ Renault Kangoo or Peugeot Partners. Those are commercial vehicles which are meant for carrying loads.

PH still have some SACHS around. Call them up.

By the way, anybody tried Al-Ko before? Its made in Spain and costs around RM170ish for both front and back. But gas-charged again

By the way, anyone has a spare Air Inlet Thermistor / Air temperature sensor? Mine got burnt and berukland is selling at RM370 for that small little transistor.
