Very good. There are some clever folk about.
Please play nicely. No one wants to listen/read a keyboard warriors rants....

keep filling sandbags.Congratulation on the passOops
I imagine a dealer or anyone fitting shocks will just fit regular shocks ,not self levelling . is this YOUR case ?
IIRC, swapping from S.L set up to standard requires springs too
Maybe I need to cut down on posting so much.
I only posted about once this year and caused 5 pages of arguing
New aftermarket steering idlers are rubbish and will probably result in more play than the originals 'slight play'
rocker cover gaskets , "if it aint broke ...."
just stick to the IMPORTANT JOBS , like a new 'magic tree' air freshener for the windscreen![]()
PM Jamie ,he can talk you through it
putting all the above to one side for the momentI was going to mention, earlier, that I would just leave it until it's an MOT failure. Other, more serious, faults could develop before that, and the car won't live forever. If it's only doing 3000 miles a year, driven at a gentle pace, you're hardly going to knacker the existing shocks.
i cannot underdtand how 2 rubber booted shocks can have a light misting of oil anyway ? i would have thought the only way oil could leak out of those would be a holed body in ehich case they surrly should be a definate fail so i suspect theres nothing actually wtong with your shocks at all
Just my opinion.
