@@adventuresinrust1644 I suppose any car that is still alive is a survivor and should be cherished! Hopefully I’ll bump into you one day at a show or something!
I could never bin this car, my dad loves it, and I've rebuilt it more than once already.. Its been rear ended 3 times, set fire to and hit in the side. Not the luckiest car but, its my dad's, and he's an absolute dude, so I'll always repair it for him. Hopefully blind drivers will avoid him from now on though!
My memory is not what it was, although I could have a look tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure the breather is the forward one. The leak off return being within the clip. I will check under the car tomorrow to be 100% sure, but I'm 99% sure it's that way
Ahh, no, the c5 x7 uses the suspension from a 407 but instead of springs and dampers they use hydraulic rams. Well, the top spec x7's do, the rest use steel springs. I've got a leaky ram on my x7 so I'll do a video on changing them at some point soon.
it looks almost the same as a Cx ,'m trying to do this one of these days ,thanks for the clear video!
Pretty much the same job yeah, most hydraulic citroens used the same setup. It only went weird with c5 x7 really..
Nice solution for the main silencer :-)
Quality video. A job that needs to be done on my BX in the future. Cheers!
@@ZakKol69 ahh, you're the dude with 16trs?
Tidy looking car that!
@@adventuresinrust1644 yes matey! And it’s abit rough and always will be, but it’s finally a running and driving car which is nice
@@ZakKol69 looks fine to me, it's significantly less shabby than my old beater!
Enjoy it, they're great fun

@ZakKol69 I don't tend to do citroen car club events any more, but I'm trying to get to a few more meets and shows so yeah, be good to meet you!
Tell you what, you tidied the BX up really good considering the amount damage done. Some people might have just binned it! Another classic saved! 👍🏻

I have to ask, can you remember which one of those is the breather, i have a suspicion that one of my rears is reversed :D

I am now 100% sure that is correct one of mine is indeed in reverse.
Thank you very much.
so same as c5 citroen 2010
