Out Of Action!

[Phil Harris]

My Bilstein spring must have had a fault. Only 5,000 miles and took my van in for a service (ahead of now aborted retirement road trip) and the mechanic from Vindis Northampton walked out with a piece of spring in his hand! (See photos)...

Managed to get new spring under warranty, on the way to Northampton this morning to replace, phoned ahead and because of Coronavirus was turned away.. The guys are closing for a minimum of 3 weeks...

when I eventually get them fitted would anyone recommend 1. Adding H&R ARB’s and 2. Anyone recommend quality fitters? I live in Warwickshire

TIA

Both my rear B14 springs did exactly the same.
@BognorMotors sorted out replacements sent to my door directly from Bilstein and I fitted them myself. Mine were almost 2 years old and had done 70k which I thought was pretty darn good considering the weight I carry.

TBH I wouldn’t be confident to fit them myself
