On the rear rhs of the petrol tank on my vts. Its a little white plastic chamber with what sounds like a float or bearing inside it. 2 black plastic pipes coming in/out of it and its just clipped onto the top of the tank.

On removing it, I snapped part of it so need to go into Citroen and ask how much a replacement is. But need to know what its called first really.
