Re: Xantia pressure warning and water leak hopefully fixed!
I tried the img code and the direct link, neither works on here but as I say on retrorides no problem.

Re: Xantia pressure warning and water leak hopefully fixed!
I have seen that coding previously.

But it has always worked. IIRC it has been when I have imported someone else's images into one of my accounts.
Still works though.

Now that's weird. Even the link to the album doesn't work and comes up as page not found!

Well photobucket seems to work everywhere else I post. To be honest I can't be bothered to move all my photos again!

Another question
Are the rear sunroof drain tubes one piece or do they have a join somewhere?

No, all one piece. The only join is on the collector at the sunroof cassette itself.mirafioriman wrote:Another question

Thanks
Been a wet day here. Can't see any signs of the sunroof leaking although I'm not totally convinced I have fixed the leak.

That's how leaks are You're never totally convinced it's fixed until all has been dry for about six months..
It'll be getting a good test today though

Re: Xantia pressure warning and water leak hopefully fixed!
Well, all back together now. Headlining is all back in and everything looks ok so far. I sealed the aerial too just in case!
Cleaned the number plate light lenses today and replaced the ageing bulbs. Quite a difference!
Need to look at the drivers side front door switch too as I have intermittent interior lamps.

Re: Xantia pressure warning and water leak hopefully fixed!
Should have also said that I fixed my noisy tailgate locking motor too. I got a secondhand replacement but found that to be just as noisy as the old one! I then tried packing the noisy one with grease but that didn't work either The other day I got a motor out of a later car. Of course it turned out to be different and wouldn't fit
So in true mirafioriman fashion I broke off the lug stopping the wiring connector fitting and modified the tailgate by drilling two new mounting holes
Result? It now fits and my locking is much quieter

Re: Early Xantia 1.9D small issues and fixes.
Bit more done today.
Replaced the door seals on all four doors. Found a good set on the R reg that the tailgate locking motor came from.
They appear to fit better than the others. The drivers front was torn anyway so that definitely needed done.There seems to be a technique to fitting
I also replaced the drivers door locking button so that works properly now and replaced the courtesy light switch so hopefully the interior lights will work all the time.
The car now also has correctly rated fuses in it as for some reason some were much bigger than they should have been
