1.8 Turbo broken rear spring
All, Rimmer bros have the correct spring with code RM as no longer available. Which spring could I use in stead? I also have to replace front dampers and the RH and LH assemblies are in stock (PB and JB).
If I have to go for another spring I suppose the difference is not major for saloon rear springs, forcing a change of rear dampers as well? And I can still use the original code front assemblies? |

MONROE SN3443 is supposed to be compatible but I have learned to distrust these listings. Anybody recognise the number and can confirm or not whether it fits a bog standard 1.8 turbo? This spring is available locally.

Damen en Kroes in the NL have 1 spring in stock. Ideally you would replace both sides at the same time, but depending on how the rest of your search goes something is better than nothing. While I'm not 100% sure, I think they are also willing to ship to Norway

Hello Per,
I bought replacement springs directly from X-Part. I'm sure that they'll have the facility to deliver to Norway. Simon
