Post by lancia58 »

Hi

In my Xantia the hydraulic pipe 4 way union is leaking ( Citroen part number 5280 N8 it is leaking the supply piping to the streeing gear). I didn't detuch it but it looks that there is a cap that is leaking. Can it be fixed or a new one should be bought ?

Thanks

In the citroen service refer to the Xantia II and type the part number 5280 N8 and it will pop up the "SUPPLY PIPING STEERING GEAR". Any way it a 4 way union where the inlet if from the hydraulic pump, the STEERING OIL PRESSURE SENSOR is hocked to one of the union inputs and the output is routed to the steering gear. The fourth input/output of the union is covered with a cup , and this is where it leaks from. At my left hand steering version it is located right below the douser bracket

I would have thought it more likely that a seal is leaking, rather than a problem with the 4-way union itself. Which cap do you mean?

Uk rhd cars are setup slightly different.. citroen instead chose to make the pas pipe one single pipe right round from the pump across the engine bay to the right side chassis runner to the back of the engine bay and then down to the front edge of the subframe and across to the pas pinion.. so a uk car might not help you here..
