Gaz'll rebuild them, it's about 35 quid or so per unit IIRC.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

That's what it was last time I asked - but that was a few years back.I'd imagine your weitecs are a monotube so need regassing too though? ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

I have no idea This is your department isnt it? All I know is they are shagged and need a rebuild.

hi m8 no on the forum much. was intrested in what you said about the front two leakin. as ma gti6 went to the garage to get a strut top bearing done and they told me that the front two where leakin. they,re only 2 and a half years old. was wonderin how old your,s are and if you,d heard of anyone else had prob,s with them after only a couple of years use. ave been told 95 but they,d do me a deal at 65= thats the garage-ecosse. is there a prob with these coilovers.________________________________________ trevor campbell |

Well, I know they have updated the seals relatively recently because of a couple of o-ring failures.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

is it worth phonin yourself rather than the garage esp,sh if they,re tryin to make out they,ve done you a deal with gaz to get them refub,d for 65 rather than 95, and they said the car would be out of action for a week. am just ppppp that a spent as much money on them only to get 2and½ years out of them. no been hard on them or push,d them,been as well buyin cheap.________________________________________ trevor campbell |
