the height correctors very seldom fail,
its usually the rubbery bits the die, and
Martin at Pleiases on
01487 831239

sells an overhaul kit,

once you have the H/C off as long as you pay attention to the alignment of the bracket with the ball on, and all the components it is a very easy job,

wash it out with petrol as this is what citroen specify
