Well after I’ve found out you can’t rebuild,as sealed units and a price for a new shocker is best part of £500,my question is has anyone had the same issue with one of there bilstein b14 komfort front shocks t32 model and removed kit and got a spare shock that is good lay about thanks Dale

Strange that they won't fit. Speak to Sultas off Kirkstall Road, VAG specialist I've been using for years, if you can supply the part I am sure they would be happy to fit.

I am having the same issue with a front damper but this time a Koni. Does anyone know if you can buy single Koni damper? That said I don't think I want to go with Koni again, what do people suggest?

Drop @CRS Performance a message. They deal in Koni.

There arent any better shocks than KONI, , we do supply individuals but occassionally this is frowned upon depending what mileage they have done

do you know what KONI shock you have ?? Part number maybe ?

Thanks @CRS Performance , but I'm sorted now, yet another drop link.

Common problem and made worse when we lower the vans and put bigger wheels

Also have to watch some of the cheap drop links they dont tighten well on the shock and sometimes make more noise
