Citroen Xantia Power Steering Pipe Repair Kit.

Post by mardybum »

DESIGN CHANGE
Due to a couple of factors, I have decided to make a minor adjustment to the repair kit. It will in no way affect its performance, but should increase reliability. Instead of two M12x1 fittings, there will now only be one, and three of the M10x1 fittings. The M12x1 adaptor has also been replaced with another M10x1 adaptor.

The main reason behind the change, is that the M10x1 fittings are available in a "long" format, and therefore allow a better seal to be made. The M12x1 fitting is still required for the Power Steering Pump.



Up for your delectation today, we have a CUSTOM designed and made replacement for the Power Assisted Steering Hose on the Citroen Xantia.

I purchased the car, knowing it needed work. The previous owner had been quoted in the region of £500, 2 days, and that wasn't a guaranteed fix either. It took a few £££'s to get it right, and arguing with the hydraulics company I used, but in the end, I made the replacement myself, as I kept getting told that it wasn't possible.

This is guaranteed to fit as a direct replacement for the rusted and corroded one your car currently sports. I know this, as mine is doing so at the moment!

Supplied in the package will be;

1x SAE 100R2S-AT 2 Wire Reinforced Hydraulic Hose complete with Swivel fittings.
2x Custom machined M10x1mm fitting
3x M10x1mm Long 3/16 Fitting
1x M12x1mm 3/16 Fitting

This neat little package will have your power steering and LHM leakage sorted in no time at all, being a direct replacement.

PLEASE NOTE
THESE ARE MADE TO ORDER IN HOUSE AND WILL TAKE APPROX. 1 DAY TO MANUFACTURE!
NO FITTING INSTRUCTION ARE SUPPLIED, HOWEVER, THE PROCESS IS STRAIGHT FORWARD!
NO KUNIFER/COPPER PIPE IS INCLUDED BUT CAN BE SUPPLIED AT EXTRA COST.

Is this a replacement for the curly wurly bit of piping between the gearbox and chassis that fails on phase 2 cars?

Yes Dommo.

The above pictures show the replacement rubber section, which turns this into a 3 piece solution rather than the discontinued one piece affair from Citroen.

I can provide tha CuNiFer at an additional cost of £10, bringing it to £50 delivered to your door. I can flare the ends of the CuNiFer for you in this price too!

can you clear this up for me please? (as your pics don't seem to be working) is this the rubber flexi hose that comes from the accumulator
to supply the power steering ?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Mardybum,
Sorted out my PAS pipe with your splendid replacement. Had very little trouble once I'd identified the correct pipe... The cunifer ends were about 10-15 cm too long so I ended up coiling them, one in the wheel arch and one in front of the sump. I used fuel pipe to stop the chafing and zip tied the rest.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi
I'm after a pipe for my Xantia HDI Exclusive. From the following description are you to tell whether or not it's the pipe that you manufacture please?

There are two pipes coming from pump it's the right hand one looking at it from front of car. It drops down and goes to rubber then to metal along n/s chassis rail. Think it supply's the rear suspension.

If it is, how do I order one from you please?
Thanks
Richard

Thanks for the welcome. I bought the V6 from RD Motors (Richard Dickinson?) in Yorkshire just over a year ago. It's registration is V6 BDR and it had already been converted by a previous owner, apparently some Xantia enthusiasts already know of it. It's done 150k miles now but still drives very well and is quite tidy. I don't use it on a daily basis but do use it regularly and particularly for long journeys.

If this V6 manual Xantia is silver in colour then it's probably the one converted by Fil van Delft (usually of CX fame). I had a ride in it when he brought it to the XM/Xantia rally at Little Horwood a year or two ago.
The car's original auto gearbox had failed and Fil prefers to,shift gears himself, so he converted it.

I had a long and interesting conversation with Fil discussing the conversion of that car at the rally...
