Hi all,
I have a problem with nonHA xantia with antisink spere '98. TurboD. The front end of the car doesnt drop at all when set to normal height, it stays on that UP position. I've greased the struts, but the problem still stays. Even overnight, the back end drops , but the front sinks only 2-3 cm.
The car sinks all the way down when i set it to lowest.
Got any advice?
Xantia won't come down

Greasing the struts wont help this problem, it will be something to do with the height corrector control linkages, either a bit seized up and/or out of adjustment.
Does it come up to normal height from right down ? If it doesn't its possible the little plastic balljoint gizmo is snapped as well. (Due to the linkages being seized up)
Unfortunately access around the front height corrector is pretty tight, even with the car on stands. (Which is a MUST for safety)
Good luck.
