Recommendations for cdti tourer rear springs

yellownev · 28th October 2018, 20:17

Hi, another request for your expertise and advice? I need to source or guide my garage to the best place for a pair of rear springs for my tourer. I want to ensure I get the right set at a fair price - any recommendations ? TIA Nev

Hi, i am in the process of replacing both rear springs for my diesel tourer, the originals were fitted just last spring(!!) but were incorrect as I only found the label under the rear seat after fitting them. They were definately too low and hopefully the replacements will be much better when I refit them later next month. I bought the set of rears for about £100 from Rimmers and I think the colour code was RG.

Thanks Smudge I should have thought of Rimmer’s and getting the code from under the back passenger seats. Nice location BTW I had my 50th in Whitehills trying to see the Northern lights.
