Are all Xantia Accumulator Spheres the same?
Looking to get an accumulator for my upcoming '97 2.0 16v Xantia. It has Hydractive but I've found one "sauf Hydractive". Are they compatible?

Re: Are all Xantia Accumulator Spheres the same?
Hydraupneumatic LHM Citroens have one Accumulator sphere (400cc/62bar/no damping) attached to the main system pressure regulator, directly after the HP pump.
In some parts/service documentation, the centre Hydractive spheres are confusingly sometimes referred to as hydractive 'accumulator' spheres, which isn't helpful.
So yes, all Xantias (and other LHM Citroens) have the same main Accumulator sphere, whether Hydractive or not.
