106 & Saxo gearbox's Peug v cit - Edinburgh andy
HI folks,

I was recenly reading something on Citroen Saxos have weak gearboxs however i havent heard of any problems with the 106 gearbox. I was under the impression they were the same cars - in all but name- are they the same gearbox on both cars or different? - which would explain why saxos have some gearbox problems.

On a more general point are parts like electrical connectios and wires the same in all peug and citroens??? i usually find reading reliability surveys that peug's do better than citroens but am curious as to why this may be if they use the same parts

Cheers

no problem with cooking saxo"s that i know of, its the thrashed vtr"s etc with weak gearboxes because of the increased torque of the bigger engines and they werent designed for it.
some parts are interchangeable but a lot of citroen parts are fairly cheap anyway so i wouldn"t bother for most things trying to get a pewgot part to fit.
