    Any decent car dealer would replace the fuel pump free of charge. I bought a Mitsubishi Shogun from a dealer and after two weeks the exhaust started blowing, turned out to be a piece connecting the catalytic converter was knackered, they ordered the part and replaced it free of charge even though exhaust system wasn't included in warranty.
    A problem shared is a problem multiplied. :o

    Have now been in courtesey car from the dealer for 2 weeks ((after having to hire a car ourselves for one week! at a cost of £150.00) just so I could get to work. Have phoned dealer twice last week and they never phoned back. Called in to see them yesterday and C8 has been sent to Citroen to see if they can rectify the electrical fault on it.

    Courtesey car is VW Passat 07 reg - v nice car but it's no good having three kids to transport around, but I'm not complaining at least they sorted me out with a replacement for as long as I need it apparently.

    Blimey, how big are your children that the three of them won't fit in a Passat?:rotfl:
