Tank Reservoir hoses to engine needed BX 19 TDX

Post by jhunt »

My hydraulic oil suddenly ran out and it looks as if at least two of the flexible hoses going from the Tank reservoir to the pump on the engine have perished. I think all of the hoses to the Tank Reservoir probably ought to be replaced before they all go. Does anyone have them or a source please?

Thanks

There is only one pipe that goes directly from the reservoir to the pump : 95 624 233 and still available from Citroen

The other pipes that you believe require replacing will consist of : Oil back harness ( 'small octopus') 96 119 048 and
Oil back harness ( 'octopus') 96 030 258 ( still available from Citroen)

Both are still available but together will set you back 100 quids I reckon. It's normally the 'octopus' that goes first as it's exposed in many places under the car whereas the 'small octopus' is above and in front of the engine and a bit less susceptible.
Details on how to fit the octopus abound on the site including R.Matilla's recent hybrid octopus efforts.
