Accumulator (sphere), easy job, just needs replacing, pumps rarely leak but it has done alot of miles.
Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....

Tim,

It would be a pleasure to meet a seasoned Bx-er. Even better if you could show me what's what and what to look out for.

I will PM you.

Tim,

The bx is in the shop all week. Euro cars are replacing the hydraulic pump courtesy of the AA. So no rush fella. Appreciate the offer anyhow. When clarifying the problem with the front accumulator. It's the actual valve behind the shpere that's leaking? Are they cheap and easy to replace? The niggly bits he mentioned I'm hoping to sort myself.

If I'm to become a Citroen enthusiast. I need to learn a few D.I.Y skills.....
