Post by: omega3000elite on 28 August 2008, 05:00:22

Hi ,
2000 3.0V6 Elite .... read the thread on repppacing the blbste instrument cluster (as previous owner fitted chav blue) and understand I need 4 - but also have an indicator arrow out - what bulb do I need ?

Also , anybody got a clue on this ... when Tony from WIM set up my camber he (or one of his guys) added air to the rear suspension .... how is this done ?

I have spoke to Tony who is not sure ... but it was said it was a little low at the time.

Huge thanks i advnce for your help guys ...

The TIS instruction for fitting rear air shocks does actually state to partially inflate them prior to connecting the pipes....  could be that they hadn't been fitted correctly in the first place or had indeed leaked :-/

Insert shock absorbers into shock absorber dome from wheel housing with piston rod – align shock absorber fastening lug (4) at semi-trailing arm and attach – tightening torque 110 Nm / 81 lbf. ft. Install rubber buffer (3), plate (2) and new fastening nut (1) from above – tightening torque 20 Nm / 15 lbf. ft.

Vehicles with vehicle level control: Note installation position of pressure line connection. Charge new shock absorber slightly with compressed air. Raise vehicle. Install pressure line connection on shock absorber.

Install rubber protective cap.
