Hi Everyone,
Thought I'd share...
Over the past little while I'd noticed that under spirited driving and if I went over an undulation in the road my car would bottom out or sounded like the suspension hitting the bump stops.
Well it was plenty worn as we discovered by removing the original shock absorbers (66,000 miles). I could compress the passenger front shock absorber on my own!
Anyway I'm running Eibach Springs and installed the Bilstein Shock Absorbers and the difference is very much night and day. Superb in fact and my car feels alot better in all aspects (cornering and over bumps).
So if your ever in doubt as to the shock absorbers then change them out! I've heard that running aftermarket springs drastically reduces the life of stock shock absorbers.
