I need new shocks and springs for my s40 2.0 d
What part or parts do.i need ? Do I need to get springs and shocks separately or does it come as one part like coilovers ? I want to just get some second hand from a breakers would any s40 part fit? Thanks |
I have replaced the front shocks on my 2011 S40.
Here is what I put in: Front right shock absorber https://www.autodoc.co.uk/kyb/826847 Front left shock absorber https://www.autodoc.co.uk/kyb/826848 Front shock dust covers https://www.autodoc.co.uk/kyb/828155 Front struts (buy two of these) https://www.autodoc.co.uk/kyb/828367 If you choose to buy these items, first contact the seller to make sure they fit your car. I do not want to advertise autodoc, it is simply the place where I bought my items. Also, don't buy this stuff second hand. Good aftermarket parts are the way to go. I did not replace the springs, not sure what you need for that job. |

A good replacement are Bilstein B4 or B6 shock absorbers, or SACHS. Springs are also good from SACHS or Bilstein if you wish to lower slightly. I wouldn't advise you get 2nd hand sets as they'll be pretty worn out already, just get new. Autodoc is a good place to start as they sell a number of different brands at different prices. As already posted, parts you need to/should change are; Shock absorbers Springs Top Mounts Dust covers |
