Citroen XM Forum

My front EV mounted on the centre sphere block is leaking when the system enters soft mode- leaking as in visible drops rather than an internal leak. So any advice on how to remove it would be welcome and also has anyone got a spare that I can buy or borrow - as i'm reluctant to remove my one until I have a spare in my hand. Steve

Yep, that's the bad boy!

My subtle point was that internal leakage in soft mode can often be cured by dismantling and stretching the small spring a little.

Thanks, but it's an external leak that is the problem - I've now corrected the original post to say as such.

An external leak only in soft mode seems unusual.

Are you shure it is not just a split or disconnected return hose? On one of my Xantias (which had a valve with a lot of internal leakage), the spike of pressure when changing modes was enough to pop-off the return hose, until I fastened it with a cable tie.
