ArthurH 7 Posted January 16 I discovered this thread in the archive: Which has been very useful to me. We have suffered a CRB failure on our BE3 box, and I now think it could be because the lower bush is yellow and the top bush white. We have the 79mm arms, so I think they should both be yellow. I believe the part I am looking for is 2175 14. I am struggling to find it for sale, any suggestions? Also, what are the 'protectors' (item 4 in the diagram)?

welshpug 1,661 Posted January 16 peugeot or citroen dealer or oem parts agent can supply the bushes if you ask them nicely to order them, they used to come in bags of 5 though so they may be reluctant to get them unless you buy all of them, that is of course if they are not obsolete, NFP/NLA. this dealer in essex has a very useful website with parts ordering feature, and do still list them https://peugeotcitroendsparts.com/search.php?search_query=217514 it would be advised to replace both if you have been running incorrect pair. just found a listing on autodoc for a pair. https://www.autodoc.co.uk/3rg/13262686#bush-selector-shift-rod the protectors are rubber seals that fit on the lip of the revised white bushes to keep moisture and dust out, they don't fit the yellow bush 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArthurH 7 Posted January 16 Thanks Mei, a very complete answer - even explaining why I didn't have/don't need the protectors. I will order a new pair of yellow now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArthurH 7 Posted January 22 I did order the set from Autodoc, in fact, as it seemed silly to order 1 set for £2.18 with £8.45 postage, I ordered two sets. They arrived today. My understanding is that the yellow pair should be used with the 79.7mm fork and the white pair with the 74mm fork, but most importantly the colours should not be mixed as that will cause the shaft to be at an angle. So to my surprise: Each bag contains one of each colour! To make matters worse, this is the pair I already have - yellow bottom, white top, so I can't use any part of it. I'm running out of time to get this rebuilt, so before returning them to autodoc, I have ordered from the other supplier Welshpug suggested above. Inc postage £10.67 for a single bush, but it will be worth it if correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,661 Posted January 23 That is quite bizarre!! Have a check of the bushes, in the small chance that they are correct but the wrong colour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArthurH 7 Posted January 23 Using Philfingers photo as a reference: They are the same shape/colours as these - so defo one of each type. I can see this being a very difficult conversation with Autodoc - but unless I complain, they will continue to sell them like this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ArthurH 7 Posted February 5 Thanks Graham. Annoyingly, my eBay searches failed to find me that one - I was probably too fixated on the part number, so I bit the (postage) bullet and bought this one from Spoox: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185447349609 Regarding the bottom bushes - Autodoc refuses to accept that their 'pairs' (sic) of yellow and white bushes are in any way incorrect, so wouldn't refund. So I have a couple of spare yellow bottoms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
