Nivomats
And another... I thought I'd covered these. Nivomat shocks are brilliant things, I've seen 300K out of a set, 250K ought to be expected.
Found on the go-faster variants, 'Estate pack' and Bifuels too.
The weak point on such a premier-grade item is the gaiters. Once they fail, the writing's on the wall. They start to leak and don't self-level or start to drop in minutes.
Change your gaiters now, the alternative is a new set of Nivomat at £8-900 or complete removal. This means a spring-change and mounts with it. A £200-250 job. Gaiters at £30 odd starts to look cheap. Piccy shows AWD variant, but you get the idea.
