Front coil springs help
Hello to everybody,
I need to change the 2 front coil springs but I have a problem, I don't find the label that is supposed to be at the rear seat (as it´s said at https://rimmerbros.com/c/MG-Rover-75...le-Information). I have removed everything but nothing, there´s no label. My Rover 75 is a 2003 comfort cdti and for that engine, M47 diesel, there are 3 different options, REB101420 REB101430 REB101440. I guess that I could fit any of them, but I don't know the difference between them. Any idea or suggestion? Many thanks in advance! |

have a look at the springs you may find to dabs of paint, I think that too is a code.

Alternatively, e-mail X-Part with your VIN number and they will be able to identify them and supply replacements. Simon

Thank you
Thank you to all of you. I look at carefully to the coils spring and the colours where there! green and white so REB101420 are the one I need.
Also I keep the x-parts mail as for sure I will use it in the future. Finally, the links to other post relationated with it were very interesting. Thank you again, |

Rimmers show no longer available for that part number or the superceeded part
As Rimmers mainly get their stock from X-part then they won't have any either. If you need some quickly then put in the part number into google and there's lots of suitable replacements, go for a reputable brand such as TRW or Suplex (note: half the springs on Rimmers are Suplex as the original part numbers are no longer available Russ
