I need to replce my rear shocks as they are weeping - best buys would be appreciated?
Autovaux?

IIRC, yours aren't self levelling? I seem to recall normal about £40 each TC. Easy to change as well :)

Not self leveling and according to Mark it's as simple as one bolt top and bottom to change?
Are there any torques to worry about?

It is simple, but start wd40 ing the bottom bolt now - they tend to seize

I think you'll find the torque setting in the Haynes manual.

I think you'll find the torque setting in the Haynes manual.
Lower mounting 110 Nm.
Upper mounting 20 Nm.

Make sure you can get it in the gap before you go and buy one though. It's a real tight fit when you get to the back of the engine and it might not fit. :y
Actually, you may need two torque wrenches for the range 20Nm to 110Nm.

Oops. Wrong thread. I was still laughing at the thought of Mikedundee asleep under his car changing the HBV.
What a dumbo I am. I'll just toddle back off to 'General Chat' where I can talk b0##0cks without making a total arse of myself.
On second thoughts, I can do that there as well. ;D ;D ;D
