[chin] the leak tis the block attached to the o/s rear-central sphere...i.e. not the corner spheres, but whichever block holds the sphere at the rear on the o/s which isn't a corner/wheel sphere! :lol: did that make sense!? :lol: BTW, just a thought, the car is on high and not sinking!

Sounds like the abti sink sphere block?

Somewhere in between! I'd say it could shift a litre in 30mins. So not a pissing contest, but more than a granny's seepage! Say, one hell of a hot bitch having a long but really juicy seeping orgasm type of leak! I can see bubbles through the errr seepage point too! It leaks even when height is constant so it must be pressure side...summat gone porous?

Hang about, I meant hydractive sphere, as I assume it is hydractive yes?
In which case does it stop leaking if you stick the bitch in sport mode?

Got the week off mate. Holiday, yay!
Today I mostly MoT'd Phoenix, then ripped Ed4Ferrets head off!
Had a lovely dinner made his lovely wife, met Finn the meerkat again, and some new arrival ferrets!
Followed by a pint.
Tomorrow, taking Kate shopping...then three days on the bus before taking Kate out again Saturday (it's her birthday) then another day of bus related cross stitch.

Anyway...
ok, the hydractive sphere is inline when in soft mode, ie, it, er, adds to the suspension.
In sport mode it's locked out of phase..
Assuming the hydractive actually works, most dont.

Poor Ed! Is he ok now? I'd love to meet a meerkat - they look so cool!
How was Phoenix mate?

I haven't tried the sport thing yet, the hydractive tended to work most of the time but got stuck in hard/sport mode from time to time.

I started it up to move it though and the arse end sunk and didna want to get up - nor was it leaking! Best thing is I'll take some piccies when I get to it. The cit pr-net website shows me sweet f/a

Hope your hols are going well dude

Ed's fine AFAIK.
No worries with Phoenix, pissed straight through the test.

Thats interesting!
Did it lift it's arse at all? or stay on the deck?
I mean, did it make any attempt at all to raise?
You will of course be aware that the rear HC fail on Xantias fail, er, ALOT?!

Hols going just fine dude ta.
