Hi All
Just discovered one of the hydrauic return pipes from the front suspension unit on my 2005 C5 has come adrift creating a small but perfectly formed patch on my drive!
It looks like a pretty easy fix once I get the wheel off and reconnect it with some extra flexible tubing but do I have to then do anything specific like bleeding or something afterwards?
Cheers
Rob

Re: Hydraulic Fluid Return Pipe Question
if it is the rubber leg pipe you dont need to do anything else but replace or affect a repair

Re: Hydraulic Fluid Return Pipe Question
Thanks Malcolm
Does that mean that it hasn't affected my suspension at all (apart from a bit of fluid loss)?

No, I jest but if you want to do the same then sign up to http://service.citroen.com and you too can see parts lists and prices.
You will need to register first and then the parts lists are free to view.
