The Citroën Xantia is a mid-size car produced by the French manufacturer Citroën from 1993 to 2001. The Xantia replaced the BX and was available in hatchback and estate body styles. It was known for its innovative hydropneumatic suspension system, which provided a uniquely comfortable ride and excellent handling. The Xantia's suspension, known as Hydractive, used hydraulics to adjust the ride height, damping, and even the overall stiffness of the suspension. This allowed the car to handle varying road conditions with ease and provide a smooth and luxurious ride. The Xantia was also distinguished by its spacious interior, advanced engine technology, and sleek, angular design. The 1997 Citroën Xantia specifically benefited from several improvements introduced during its mid-life facelift in 1995. These included revised front and rear styling, a new dashboard design, updated engine options, and improved safety features. The 1997 Xantia was offered with a range of petrol and diesel engines, including the 1.8L and 2.0L petrol units, and the 1.9L and 2.1L diesel engines. Some models also featured a turbocharged diesel option. While the Xantia was praised for its comfort and handling, it was also known for its complex hydraulic system, which could be prone to leaks and require specialized maintenance. For those seeking to maintain their 1997 Xantia, a comprehensive service repair manual is essential, providing guidance on the intricacies of the hydropneumatic suspension, engine systems, and other components.
