Weak Suspension

Post by farid »

Hi and good day,
Actually I had posted my questionnaire at other the good forum recently(bxclub)....

I am newbie actually here, but always log in at this forum.

I'm from Malaysia was my ride as old xantia with Bx 'soul', means have FDV.

My problem (car) when the steering at position at clock 11 or 1 while driving even stationary the light of hydraulic warning appear in dash. It will front struts sinked slowly at front and feel no suspension(hard ride)
Had cleaned second-hand FDV except changed the tiny filter which the bottom one was burst...(thank you for detailed repaired in forum)and assembled back still same. Changed second-hand PR also same.

The suspension at front will sinked slowly when went to tight parking which use steering left and right more times. Also went to big round-about even though in high speed(high rpm engine) with few minutes the struts will going sink slightly and feel like car with short coil spring.

Recently changed 2 suspension sphere(front) and Acc. sphere. The light seem disappear but suspension still going down when steering in use.

What the problem, specialist guy?
I think to put shimming in PR but have not gauge to tested. Can I put 0.3 mm shim at both cut in and cut out arrangement with out calibration the unit to increase pressure?
