Some interesting and tempting stuff there James.

You have to understand that replacing the HDD does NOT fix any problems that already exist with the motherboard. If your system has internal hardware or software failure then this will not resolve your problem and you'll need to consider a replacement.

Two years ago I was forced to change rear hydraulic pipes on my ’09 x7 2.2HDi cause one of them leaks. Whereas the pipes was unavailable to buy here I decided to create substitute from original.

Citroen finished production of the last C5 X7s way earlier than 2019! The only ones after that were using stock up. Only the exclusive and one or two engine variants were available in 2016. and even then some parts were becoming scarce for some models.....

Have not seen up close yet, so not clear on the specifications, also due to vague parking arrangements I don't know exactly which house is theirs either.

Is this anyone on here living in HP1 area with a Silver Xantia on a personal plate?

Any more/amplification?

My concern is the pinion housing is aluminium so a small risk of galvanic corrosion with the cuni. I...

First post

appears to be a Turkish supplier of hydraulic parts who is attempting to get into the markiet of supplying after-market spares for Xantia parts that are now obsolete. Their pricing seems very reasonable.

I have no other knowledge of the company.

Last post

You may be interested in this topic: which describes and upgrade to the HA2 system, and I think has some information about damper elements on the center spheres.

I'm so going to stalk you online and find you to present a bottle of Turkish Raki if I ever travel any country near you. :-D Thanks for giving me tonight's reading!

Thanks to Chris (White Exec) for sourcing these.
