Rear springs
« on: 05 October 2008, 11:03:20 »
Are all Omega mini-facelift rear springs the same??
Or are the Elite ones different??

Any idea how much they are from Vx??

TIA

all the same, throughout the range. Even MV6 ones on mini-facelift are the same.

I used KYB on mine, they were the OEM. £40 each.

Vx are too expensive even on TC, go to a parts store, but get KYB.

Replace in pairs  :y

Except for the self-levelling ones?

edit: I replaced mine as a pair . . . eventually.  ::)  Didn't seem to affect anything in the meantime.  ;)

Mine is an Elite, which has self-leveling suspension on the rear, so does that mean i need a certain spring then?? :(

I have new Vx rear self leveling shocks to go on soon, and i have seen a pair of Vx new springs for sale and just wondered if they would fit mine.

The p/n is 90542359

Dazzler, they are all the same. (for saloons)

Go to a local motor factors and get Omega rear springs for a Saloon, try and get KYB.
