Citroen XM Forum

Yes Misha, XM was just started, it will disappear in a few seconds.
There are hydractive 1 and 2, with hidroaktive I the display says "automatic suspension", at H2 it is "normal suspension".Hydractive is a name for intelligent hydraulic suspension controlled by ecu, you can choose normal/automatic or sport mode.

I know that alex,but didn't know that hydractive 2 was introduced in s1 in 93.
I thought that h2 started from '94 with S2 cars.

Model Year 94 cars started production after the 1993 summer shutdown. H2 was definitely fitted to late 1993 cars.

HYDRACTIVE II was introduced during the 1993 Model Year production.
"From February 1993 at RP 5929 all XM models were equipped with a new hydractive suspension: HYDRACTIVE II."
"New suspension with two settings:
- NORMAL - position: automatic transition from soft to firm mode.
- SPORT - position: Unlike HYDRACTIVE I suspension, the system does not impose the firm mode.
The transition from soft to firm is more frequent and faster than in the - NORMAL - position.
This option ensures optimum road holding while preserving comfort by returning to the soft mode when the sport mode is no longer required."

There are also details of the changes and a explanation of the improvements.

Misha i told you my is special [emoji6]

I bought my self a new toy






This is an exclusive V6 in fairly good condition, it has some bugs, but it is normal to XM

Beautiful interior





ct is now owned by my friend who also has a V6 24V ZPJ4 with only a 114.000km´s under wheels

Paul is probably going to get excited, an xm and ren 25 next to each other.

Nice find there, cant be many manual V6's about, i hope it serves you well and you have fun fixing it up.

Renault 25? I see an Audi 100. I quite like those.

Enjoy your new toy. Nothing like a V6 manual.

Year with automatic tct was great, but I prefer a manual transmission , i feel more connected to car . I will open another topic of the new XM when I have time, now I have little to play with my new toy
