'98 Xantia estate back on road after two years SORN

Post by Malcolm »

Took my Xantia estate of the road two years ago. Bought new rear discs and pads and Gun Gummed rear box. The MOT advisory items highlighted the three rear suspension interconnecting pipes corroded but not seriously weakened. It was insured before taking for test, now taxed, so one more back on the road.
Having charged the battery, first start was just like switching on - immediately fired up.

Not had new pipes made up for a vehicle for years. Are these rear pipes something that a motor factor will make up or are they specific Citroen parts.

Thanks

Look in the recommended garages section for Pleiades and give them a bell. They're the go-to for new pipes.
