Hi hibs72

There are loads of steering racks listed for all the various options for that year. You may need to pinpoint a compatible one by VIN.

Citroen don't list a separate motor to the rack on that year, so you may end up getting a complete recon rack and motor.

The citroen way to do this is new rack with motor complete and new ePAS ECU at the same time.

I do hope they are sure that the motor is faulty because these things just usually go on and on.

You can give BBA-Reman a call to see if they recon the steering racks , they are on 01634687222. Tell then the citroen C3 owners forum sent you :D but have your VIN ready.
