Hi anybody know the Citroen part number for the vts pas rack the one with 2.4 turns lock to lock or what year xsara they were on? I’ve tried to get one from motorfactors but no one seems to know what I’m on about

get yourself an account on here, http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com

 

used to be a separate site for peugeot and citroen but these days its integrated into one and you just select the relevant dropdown to go to citroen

 

 

4000 W3 is the phase1 vts part number, however it has been marked NFP for many years already, and list price currently is £706 plus vat.

Our local 1.6L monopoint Si has a 2.7 PAS rack. I've got one in my race car but it's not as good as the 2.4. Keep searching.

I use the rack of the ZX 2.0 16v; I think it is 2.6 turns (not sure), but has a splined drive iso square.

It's a 9 tooth pinion of the 2.4 rack and 8 on the 2.7 right?

 

There is a "racing" 10 tooth pinion but I wonder if it's not from another car.

The later 505 had this kind of pinion but I don't know if the tooth on the 205/306 rack can mesh with it.

That's probably at least a quarter of the remaining RHD ZX 16v racks in the UK, and probably a significant percentage worldwide! :lol:

Great! Have one as well.

 

Any clue how many turns the 1.9/2.0 8V ZX rack has?

According to a Citroën internal document It should be 2.75 turns with the 8 tooth pinion (black cap) and 3.25 turns with the 7 tooth one (green cap).

Too bad this document is older than the 2.0 8v/16v ; at that time the 1.9 (xu9ja/xu9jaz) was the only one fitted with the 2.75 rack.

Interesting, I’ve a 2.5-ish turn spline drive rack on one of my cars, wondered where it might have originated.

I did an PAS converson on a 205 Rallye with the ZX rack , was 2.6 and with the spline drive .. was very good to drive too , so defiantly consider it as an option too as well as Ph2 Xsara vts (that one is also around 2.6-2.7 ??) .

 

Found myself an 2.4 rack from crashed Ph1 Xsara , and it's for real the best you can get and highly recommended !

 

Unfortunately , both the 2.6 ZX and 2.4 Xsara will be bit hard to find nowadays .. but keep digging , something will pop up ...

Im looking for a Xsara VTS rack.  Ideally a phase 2 , but will consider a phase 1 rack if its a straightforward swap.  Many thanks
