Full Version URGENT Brake valve wanted

Club XM Forum > Wanted!
Zaphod
Hi, I have been offered a TCT SX auto for scrap metal money (must be the only one, never seen one lower than VSX!) it has MOT till june but the brake valve is leaking. While I doubt it needs more than seals, or possibly putting back together (My first XM pushed the end out due to a badly fitted circlip) The car is over 100 miles from me and id rather travel up with a valve, fit it put LHM in and drive back.

I will admit my interest is purely as spares for my Exclusive and I don't plan on keeping it. I do know it has a manifold blow (or worse) but other than that and the valve the only other issue is some laquer peel. I will review its fate once I have it here!

So does anyone have a valve they could sell/lend me to get this car back?

Hi zaphod,

I have a spare in stock which you can have on loan. However, it came out a scrapper so I can't vouch for it. I'm not sure if that actually helps your situation. However, please let me know if you still want it.

Did I understand from your post that the existing valve is already in pieces? Was it the PO who dismantled it?

cheers

No the car is complete ATM, the valve is leaking though but theres a good chance its not beyond hope, but I'd rather go there knowing I can get it back home rather than hope I can fix it brfore driving it home. It seems not to leak when pressure is appled to the brake, but does when the foot is off the brake.. (return pipe?) I've not seen the car yet so don't know for sure.

As I remember its 2 13mm bolts and the two high pressure pipes and the return pipe?

My main interest in this are the two rather good strut tops!
