8v Turbos are sh1te.........apparently? Group: Pitcrew+ Posts: 3495 Joined: 12-December 07 From: Rotherham South Yorkshire Member No.: 11645 |
As title I'm trying to establish the gear and FD ratios in a Xantia TD gearbox. I have searched high and low and although can find reference to the Xantia box cannot find the ratio information anywhere.
If anyone has or knows a source of this it would be very much appreciated. Otherwise I'm simply going to have to pull the box to pieces and count the teeth therein. Many Thanks chaps. |

all the 1.9 TD's I've driven have had the same RPM/MPH ratio's. (405's 406's Xantias + 306's) I think the F/D would be different in the 406 and possibly later Xantia's due to the different tyre sizes used.

OK, so you think that there may be a difference between 306 and Xantia. Interesting, but I'm no closer to the ratios!!!
Anyone? |

I just tried a google search fo these ratio's & found one site apparently hosting the xantia service & repair manual which might have this info but after downloading the first part it was corrupt
http://rapidshare.com/files/49693437/Citro...antia.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/49695517/Citro...antia.part2.rar Found the ratio's for the 2.0 16v XU10J4 though. Graham. |

Part 2 (lower link) is the one to get as its the full Citroen Xantia Haynes service & repair manual but unfortunately it doesn't list any of the gear ratios.
Has the wiring diagrams in the back though. Graham. |

Thanks for your efforts Graham, much appreciated. I think I'm going to have to strip the box (or at very least take the diff out and establish what the CWP is).

We had a Xantia TD the other day that was 4.26 FDR, the gear ratios are more than likely 3.45, 1.87, 1.26, 0.97, 0.76 or 0.66. We didn't check them.

would it be easier/possible rather than stripping the whole box to put an old driveshaft in the diff and rotate it by hand until the input shaft had done a full rotation and see how many revolutions/part revolutions the driveshaft had done?
i guess assuming you knew the fdr |

Sandy; thanks for that info
Matt; technically possible I guess but I don't know how accurate the results would be |

any external I.d stickers or any markings? you can find the F/D info on Servicebox if you have the 4 digit/letter code.
most common figures for the Xantia XUD9TE; CP 19X79 - CT 22X18 |
