hi can anyone help?

my suspension on 99 (t reg) 1.8 sx xantia is very bouncey it raises and lowers fine but if you hit a bump it bounces for britan. while the car is switched off the suspension is like a normal car with regards to pushing the suspension. the hydraulic tank is at the corect level.

any ideas?

Hi Aaron.

 

It sounds very much as though your spheres (they are the "springs" in your Xantia) are shot. The good news is that they're niether particularly expensive nor difficult to change, although the rear ones can be awkward due to the exposed position under the car. For a "blow by blow" guide, see my reply to Willie at

If you look through the old Xantia postings you should find the answers to most of your questions. They've all been "Done" at one time or another.

 

Cheers. Hope this helps :rolleyes:
