Will see what happens today !!!!!!!!!!!!

For everybody's Info you can get the HP & LP pipes but at a cost for my version LP part no 4012V1 £ 133.93 HP part no 4014NV £228.52.

If anyone's interested I'll put both sites up.

Hi Kenny, I would be grateful if you could put up those links as I have a leaking low pressure pipe. I managed to get a second hand one but some of the bends are not the same and I fear it may break during fitting. Thanks a lot.

Hi Kenny.

There is no electronic suspension on the C5 Aircross and no rack problems to date.

The suspension consists of conventional springs and struts, but they use PHC (Progressive Hydraulic Cushions) technology for the struts. There are no electronics involved and no external hydraulics, just self-contained struts.

Hi there,

I just came across an auto parts site selling an Fiaam filter for C5III (Mapco part 29990) described as "hydraulic filter steering filter" Forgive my ignorance but I wasn't aware there was a filter for the steering system. Does anyone know what or where this is or how often it should be replaced etc?

I have just installed a reconditioned rack followed closely by a second hand LP pipe and I didn't notice such a filter anywhere.

Thanks and regards
Mike

There's no such OEM part. What a terrible site that is! That's the trouble with some of these sites - they mix actual parts up with junk that has nothing to do with your car.

If you ever need genuine live PSA part numbers / parts diagrams from Citroen Mike:

We can help if you need an original, genuine part number or part diagram, and can't already find the info you need on the Forum. For this service, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future part number requests for up to 2 years, so excellent value.

If interested, links are below, then provide your vehicle's VIN in full, which will be masked automatically when you submit your post.
