Lowering Springs On Ebay

[Ed_Shek]

The seller has stated that these won't fit a T-Sport but I believe he is wrong!

Ebay Item number: 290262803934

Ed,

I bought this Part Number via Mr T for my car, it is the correct part. The seller being a dealer explains why they have no clue about TTE parts (Sorry Not You Kingo!). Go for it, i have checked my invoice and this is the part number on it.

Well may the best bidder win! Well I've also been quoted on a set of Eibachs so will get those if I fail on these.

The O/S/F Shocker was leaking so it was the ideal time to get the springs done. I was a little disappointed as the car had only done 30k at the time.

Well I won the auction! :D Got the TTE Lowering Springs for £94 including delivery. Should arrive in a couple of days so now I need to find someone to fit them.

Looking forward to driving the car lowered 30mm.

Nice one Ed, shame they were £50 less than mine :ffs:

Does any one know if there will be any problems with me fitting these to a 6 year old CTS???

I'm still running on the original shocks though the car has only done 42k miles.

Last MOT I had a warning that my front nearside shock had a misting of oil on it but this year nothing was flagged up and it was done at the same garage again.

are you fitting them yourself? lowering springs tend to shorten damper life.

if you are gonna pay to have them fitted may make more financial sense to change the dampers too........

I agree, at least do the fronts as its more work to strip the front suspension than it is the rear, however as its all going to be in bits anyway save the cash and do the whole lot in one go. If you can resist that is! :D

any idea by how much? and at what approx milage do they need changing?

Could you tell me where to find coilovers for a 1989 1.6 GTI. I can't find anyone who does parts for them!
