Slightly annoyed tonight as I couldn't find the securing clip for the lhm tank core, had to change out the dual mass crank pulley as it was becoming more dual mass than I would of liked (solid one fitted) but then fired her up with the pump belt now fitted, primed it and a full lhm tank became an empty lhm tank, all the struts and many other things have been off and stripped, then emptied of fluid and now they have consumed the tank full, no issue, I will just pop up the garage and get some lhm being a bit keen to see it working.......................£26/ltr :shock: 26 hard earned pounds for 1 Ltd of mineral oil with some green food colouring in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I see Citroen dealers no longer keep it on th shelf either. What has happened to the green blooded world while I've been away? Anyone know of a reasonably priced supply, 5ltr tub if the price is right.

Half that price in Halfords.
Comma 5-litre for about £22 on Amazon, and no doubt elsewhere.

Hi Dean

Mine comes at about £24 for 5 ltrs delivered.
Doubt they will send to the IOW foc though.
Can spare that amount in a 5ltr can or 5x1ltr if you wish.
I can get it replaced easily.
Overdue set of jacking point covers here as well.

Didn't think of amazon, the bay is about 35quid ish for 5, last time I bought some it was £4.50/Ltd from the dealer if memory serves so not much change, just an expensive garage.

Sounds like I need to make a trip over in the not too distant then John, not long now and those jacking point covers will be holding up the mot ;) , I'm sure the wife would not complain at the chance to go shopping.

That sounds more expensive than from the dealer.
There has to be a cheaper way.
