my citroen xantia ride is very bumpy .the front is also higher than the back on drive mode, the heater fan only works when i hit under the glove compartment

sounds like your spheres need changing they have lost their gas also your rear height corrector could be seized if its sitting low at the back, both reasonably easy to change, parts easily available thru gsf car parts expect to pay about £100 for all 4 spheres, use caution when working on these parts consult a haynes manual..

new suspension spheres will sort out the bumpy ride ride and you will need to change the accumalator sphere and depending on model the anti-sink spheres g s f do them all for about 25 quid each,it's also advisable to change the L H M fluid and clean the reservoir filters at the same time; height differences are normally caused by a sticking height corrector a good douse of w d 40 normally sorts this out and your fan sounds like a bad connection invest in a haynes manual if you fancy tackling the problems yourself
