A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables when a voice in the dark said,

Hi All,
Seems I have a new neighbor with a lovely silver Xantia with personalized reg plate.

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?

Admins, sorry...

A post from a member who has likely suffered a Hard Drive failure on his NG4 Navidrive 3D system has prompted me to re-double my efforts in finding a possible pre-emptive solution to Drive Failure. The same can be said of the RT4 system with a HDD, although these units seem to have more issues than the NG4. Although the principle is the same for...

Last post

This guide is intended for the NG4 (Double DIN unit), so I can't advise on trying this with an RT5, but I suggest you have a look on Amazon as there are quite a few there - and if they are not compatible, you can always return them free (just keep the packing as original as you can.

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.

Hi, unfortunately, as PSA has now withdrawn all their once free resources and parts data, we have had to move these handbooks to the Resources section of the Forum.
