Xantia return pipe
Hi, my S1 Xantia, has a hydraulic leak on a return pipe fitting. the fitting is Y shaped and the pipes push into the fitting. is it possible to still source these ? thanks Terry. the fitting has split !

Re: Xantia return pipe
Some return piping may still be available from Citroen, I got a Y piece not so long ago. Or https://www.chevronics.co.uk/product/bx ... ts-xantia/ from Chevronics. Personally I use aquarium fittings, which work well and are not attacked by LHM.

Re: Xantia return pipe
Return pipes are not under any real pressure, and are frequently joined together, on their way to the reservoir.
The exception is return from the steering, which shifts sizable quantitities of LHM.
The returns from suspension items are quite small, so any reasonably sized Y- or T-piece should suffice for rubber piping; nylon return tubing will require rubber elbows/couplers, which are still all available from Citroen.
