V6 12v starting issues - sorted at last!!

ALL CX Had Divari..

Sorry Paul, not quite all of them did...

The very first CXs were not equipped with Diravi however it did become standard at some point in 1976...

Can look up the month if necessary as can't exactly remember it off hand...

Bit of trivia in that the non-Diravi CXs also have an ever so slightly larger steering wheel too...

That's right, I am sure I have seen a photo of an early copper coloured one parked with its wheels turned and the rear sunk down. Usually a Diravi would self centre it's wheels wouldn't it.

to my great relief finally fixed the problem

You said it, usually. The vehicle may have been moved with engine off and insufficient LHM pressure.
But it is true some very early models did not have power steering, which made them hard to drive.

Indeed Russ that'd more than likely be a non-Diravi car, especially as those very early cars were finished in that fantastic Sable Cendre colour too.

A non-Diravi CX is an interesting change to a Diravi car...personally think it adds to that je ne sais quoi of the early CXs...

A bit like a Diravi XM then!! The early S2 PRV 24v lhd did also have Diravi of course. Regards, Matthew T.
