If you own a Citroen Berlingo from the model years 2008 to 2018, you might be familiar with the starter motor troubles these vehicles can sometimes exhibit. As a UK-based master tech mechanic with over 15 years of hands-on experience in automotive repair, I've dealt with my fair share of such issues. Here I'll describe the common problems, their symptoms, and the repair processes. I'll also consider why selling your van could be a simpler solution.
The starter motor is crucial for igniting your engine, and any fault here can severely impact your vehicle's functionality. Typical signs that there might be a problem with the starter motor in your Citroen Berlingo include a clicking sound when turning the key, the engine not turning over, or sporadic starts. Sometimes, you might also notice that the lights on the dashboard dim when you attempt to start the engine.
Starter motor troubles in the Citroen Berlingo can stem from various sources. A primary culprit could be a faulty electrical connection or a worn-out solenoid. The starter motor itself can also fail due to internal wear and tear over time, especially if the van has high mileage. It's also not uncommon for issues to arise from a failing battery or problems with the ignition switch.
Addressing a starter motor problem typically begins with a thorough diagnostic to confirm the root cause. This might involve testing the battery, inspecting the electrical connections, and checking the starter motor and solenoid. If the starter motor needs replacement, the process involves disconnecting the battery, removing the old unit, and installing a new one, ensuring all connections are secure and functional.
If you're facing a faulty starter motor, one of the options could be to sell your Citroen Berlingo and perhaps upgrade to a newer model. Repairing an older vehicle can sometimes be more trouble than it's worth, both in terms of time and money. At Vandervan, we provide a seamless service to buy your van. With a quick online quote, next day collection directly from your location across the UK, and immediate payment to your chosen account, transitioning to another vehicle could be smoother and more efficient than you think.

Trading in your vehicle might be an excellent opportunity to enhance your driving experience with a newer, more reliable model. After all, your peace of mind and satisfaction with your vehicle are invaluable.

Yes, you can indeed sell your financed van with vandervan even if it's under a Hire Purchase (HP) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement.
If you decide to sell your financed van, the initial step is to obtain a 'settlement figure' from your lender, which you can usually find in a settlement letter. Following that, get a valuation for your van.
Our team will walk you through the settlement process.
We do not charge any fees. There are no admin charges or anything like that. Just your van, your money, instantly.
By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.
This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.
Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.
However, with our van buying service, you stand a better chance of obtaining a great price.
The process with us is quick and straightforward. Simply start with a free valuation and contrast this with your part exchange offer. You might be delighted to find how much more you could get from using our service than you’d get from a part exchange!

Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.
It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
