    It seems the exhaust bracket is a very common problem, but I was a little surprised regarding the brakes, the pads are fine, it's the discs that are badly lipped (I thought this was one of the 112 point pre-delivery checks).

    Maybe I've just been unlucky, just seems alot to go wrong so soon!

    Hopefully they will sort the brakes out tomorrow, and fix the engine mount problem at the same time (if that's what it is).

    Again I'm a little surprised that the Citroen garage that fixed the exhaust bracket and ball joint (and identified the brake discs problem), but didn't notice the problem with the engine mounts, they did test drive it, they just said that the clunk was due to the ball joint, and was now all sorted!

      Hi all, I finally got my car back, the clunking noise was something to do with the wishbone (but not 100% sure as they didn't provide a receipt for work carried out, even though I specifically asked for one before hand!)
      So the problems that have been fixed so far are:-

      Rear exhaust bracket
      Ball Joint
      Brake discs & pads
      Something to do with the wishbone

      But now I've got in my car and realised that the Gas Pedal has sunk towards the floor, maybe nearly 2 inches!!

      Has this happened to anyone else, I'm totally fed up with this car and Citroen!!
