Xantia HDI 110 LHM reservoir leak

Post by Hurdsey »

As it says, from the top of the reservoir where the all the pipes go in, there is a round removable access panel with a rubber seal round it, it appears to be leaking from there, not a lot but there is a small puddle of LHM collecting on the top of the reservoir, cant notice much difference in the fluid level, its just that i dont like to see it there, is this a common problem? and is it easy (cheap) to fix?

Mine did that for a while after I'd changed the LHM and cleaned the tank etc. I had overfilled the tank a bit and once it came down to a more normal level it stopped doing it.

Same for me too, mine was making a pool of lhm after i had topped the tank up, it did it for about a week before finlly settling down to the correct level,
It was only a small amount over the normal level, but i guess thats still too much
