Here's the final update. Went to Pleaides today. I was wrong on both counts, it wasn't the brake valve and it wasn't downstream from the anti sink valve, it was upstream. What I had (may be useful for future reference) was a massive leak past the ram in the left hand rear suspension arm. Two and a half hours after arriving at Pleaides I was on my way with a new suspension cylinder, two spheres and a return to the normal comfy ride. What is disappointing is that this car should have suffered a failure at relatively low mileage whilst my two previous XMs were trouble free up to when I sold them at 85000 and 133000 miles respectively. As was my ID (poor man's DS and my first Citroen), my GS, GSX, and GSA (what a pity they weren't made of galvanised steel), and my BX.
Cheers, chaps.
