Leaking at stiffness regulator

Post by thing »

My Xantia 1.9TD SX is suspected having leaking stiffness regulator. When I start the engine, it won't leak. But after a ride, than it started to leak. I don't know exactly where but should be somewhere around stiffness regulator.
Anyone here experient leaking stiffness regulator? Or has any idea about this problem?

Just to clarify, do you mean the accumulator sphere at the pressure regulator at the front of the car behind the radiator or are you talking about the "anti - sink" sphere?
If it's a leak at the pressure regulator/accumulator, it could be seals associated.
If it's at the accumulator, have they fitted a new seal to the sphere?

Thanks Alan, but it is not pressure regulator. What I mean is the center stiffness control block of front suspension. This thing only fitted to hydractive Xantia. It is located near to the pressure regulator. Mine is Hydractive II, so there is an electro-valve integrated to the block.
