My vees just failed...

Its MOT, well pissed off to say the least.

Its failed on the Left side rear shock absorber leaking.

And guess what...Its not covered on warranty theres a suprise, yet in my extended warranty book cant find any where that says shock absorbers arnt covered.

I understand that shocks are normally wear and tear items but these a KONIs and should be up to the job, its not as if there some cheap shi*t no name shockers.

Question is how much is a shocker and do i need to replace them in pairs?
 
Dennis - there is a full set of mk1 suspension setup forsale on ebay at the mo, maybe 1 of the technical experts can say if the struts are the same??

Clarkie?
TRW1?
MikeT?

Regards steve
 
Result,

Renault have just phoned and said there gonna replace my shocker 100% free on warranty, on monday, and re-align it. Bonus!!!! :lol:
 
They tried to blag me with the wear and tear but when questioned the matey there went to Renault Uk and they said they would do it.
