Citroen Xantia - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Xantia MK 1 - Years 1993-2002
Part: Arm
Operation: Replacement of silent block oscillating arm suspension

The failure of the support rubber (silent block) of the oscillating arm of the front suspension is a fairly recurring defect and manifests itself with a significant noise especially when driving on bumpy roads; remedying this problem is quite simple and cheap since there are special repair kits in the after market; then place the car on suitable car stands and proceed with the disassembly of the oscillating arm remove the head from the hub support with the special fork extractor; It is likely that the inner bushing of the rubber will remain seized on the arm itself: make a notch with a thin cutting disk taking care not to damage its seat on the arm and proceed backwards to install the new bushing.

At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
