Thanks Tim, that's great and congrats on the new arrival! I'm going to be away abroad myself from the 22nd - Nov 1st, so there may be a further hiatus!
Cheers – Mark

2.5's DONT have FDV's, they have a 6+2 setup like later Xantias..

Meaning DIRECT suppied PAS from the pump..

All other engines doo..

Of course I knew this, just forgot. I should know with the less than satisfactory PAS on my 2.5

Tim can you add to my list
the plastic tray that sits under the passenger side and covers some of the hydraulic pipes, looks about 18" long by about 4" wide and angles round near the front?
Passenger side dash end vent grilles that interface to direct air thru the door.

And also still
cruise control dash button + Stalk
Drivers B pillar air vent grille with its rubber surround

And if you fancy a few quid for the HP pump as well i could be tempted with that.

Hi Tim,

Looks like that plastic cover is in big demand, but are you working on a first come. first served basis?!

Hope to hear back from you again soon – Mark

Hi people!

The XM is still marooned on my Dad's drive in Birmingham, much to his annoyance. As soon as I can drag it up here to break I'll update the thread. Sorry for the huge delay- I probably should have advertised it when it was actually here and not 60 miles away.

Hi lankytim,

Any idea what state the engine mounts are in? Mate needs a top engine mount for his.

Thanks!

The mounts are probably not great as it's been driven with a bouncy engine for the last few miles. It's burned a valve and the engine it's making a good attempt at escaping the engine bay! Id imagine the mounts are pretty knackered.
