Ok well to update this there is about 3 litres of antifreeze in the system now and its holding ok i hope, touch wood.
Also just ordered the bush's as Citroen France have shed loads in apparently so thought for £60 cant be a bad thing and will keep me busy one evening.
One thing i recall from somewhere is that someone has done these and the control rods and has now upset the lean of their activa...
I want to avoid this and the grommets, for want of a better word, look like they come in halves, is this correct or do i need to make a cut in it so i can slide it on without taking a million things apart? Mainly as my car when idling doesnt do the shuffle and sits beautifully straight to the naked eye, if a tiny bit high at the front for my liking but don't want to mess this up given i don't have a pit to do such work from or any ramps at the minute...
