Hello, all

My 2008 2.2 C6 thinks it's a DS and starts sinking as soon as I turn the engine off. Is this likely to just be a tired anti-sink sphere or could it be something more serious?

Any advice gratefully received. Apart from this it's behaved itself remarkably well since I bought it.

If the spheres are broadly the same as the 2.7 then I'd be surprised were they an issue -- they seem a much longer lasting affair than the earleir XM types.

Is it settling just at the front or rear, or evenly ? Have you checked the fluid level -- is it possible that it is low and has become aerated, in which case a top up and bleed may be worth trying.

Mike.
