Someone on the forum mentioned that Xantia final drives can have a problem with nuts working loose inside. I have asked for more info on a previous thread but got no reply.

There is a ring of bolts holding the crownwheel onto the diff unit, they are in there with a very good thread locking compound I cannot imagine them working loose, when I stripped a diff unit the threads came out with the bolts!, theres little else in there.
