Steve mentioned "Technical Training – Checking & adjusting Activa roll correction, Mobule B8 – Activa roll correction system
and Hydractive 3 and 3+" were under scanning and compiling.
Are these materials available anywhere nowadays? Download link to pdf files or maybe direct e-mail attachment would be highly appreciated.

I have the official Citroen procedure somewhere here for all the use it is. It's about as useful as a glass hammer...
However, if you'd like it I'll dig it out and put it up on my website...

The instructions don't really work as you'd hope Simon. Or not in my experience anyway.Mandrake wrote:Why's that ?
You really need to set up a leaning Activa to fully understand what I'm saying here. Then you would.
My last attempt at correcting a leaning Activa a couple of weeks ago took me four attempts over two days...

Re: Xantia Activa manuals
I see, so its nearly as useful as the offical height adjustment procedure which expects you to use two custom tools to adjust the height corrector and follow a long complicated process when all you need is a socket drive and a small hammer ?

Re: Xantia Activa manuals
Worked for Juliet, but you need the car over a pit or up on a lifted ramp. Doing with just the front of the car up on separate ramps would be a real PITA.Mandrake wrote:You mean this Jim ?

Re: Xantia Activa manuals
Iain, by way of encouragement what I find is that levelling either goes smoothly and is done fine in one go or else it takes several goes and several days! I seem to suffer more from the latter rather than the former
I sincerely hope yours is one of the former!
