Spheres on a 300D...or a TD? I am assuming it's a wagon?
If you're out of the US supposedly a Citroen shop can rebuild them. If not you'll likely have to pay the $135-150 per sphere as everyone else does.

There was a company in London (England) that would charge Citreon air cells for about 15 GBP (this was back in the early 90's). The Citroen has a similar setup to the 6.9 so I suspect that they can be charged but whether it's cost effective is another thing. New air cells are about $100 side so not too expensive

It's a sedan 300D. I'm in Australia. Cost here is around the $280 mark per cell. So I am looking at other options. I'll follow up Citroen and get back. Looking forward to other ideas as well.

Wow that is expensive being double what it is here. Fortunately they don't need to be replaced that often. A set could be shipped from the US but the shipping is expensive (as I work for an Aussie company) and I am not sure if customs would have a problem with them.

If that gas leaked out wouldn't that point to the rubber membrane being bad?

Apparently the Citroen has a cell that can be split and be refurbished. It can also be easily regassed up until the membrane breaks down. Maybe the citroen can be adapted has anyone got the knowledge to do this. I guess in the US the cost to replace may not make it worthwhile but here in OZ it would be something to consisder.

Many parts wholesalers out of the US will ship world wide and I know many Aussies that buy through these vendors. You may want to consider buying from here.
