Citroen c5 part 5270RN

Post by atrman777 »

Hi, Am now to this forum. I have a C5 with a leaking hydraulic loom part No 5270RN.

The garage says the part is no longer available and the car will need to be scrapped for sake of a part.

Any advice or help would be very, very welcome as I love the car itself.

Picture of part attached.

Regards

Steve

Exactly whereabouts along the pipe(s) is the leak?
It may be possible for a repair to be done.

It is highly likely that the pipe can be repaired by an industrial/agricultural hydraulics specialist, but they may require you to have the pipe removed from the car before they will repair it.

Failures of these pipes seem to be rare, so you could also consider fitting a second-hand part.
