    Another DIY Sachs Rebuild/Service

    I checked mine today too. Last serviced with BG two years ago and both on ~60psi now. Do not know what they filled it to. I note you say it's fine to add air. Shall I top up to 75 or leave as is? Is it not going to be compressed in normal use, heat and expand? Cheers

    This is a BG dyno. Air pressure was adjusted in one of the dampers after this dyno. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Mike(RenTech) is brilliant. Used him for the last 8 years.....was just a misunderstanding by his apprentice. No harm done and all sorted.

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Dampers switched the correct way this morning :) Just need to get the tracking done now. I had standard cup dampers on over the winter and seeming it had been a few years since the last service at BG I got them to do a dyno test and all came up good. Still costs a lot for even a dyno test (£60...

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Rentech (Mike) is really good....just one of those things. I can last without using it over the weekend so will get them switched next week. Cheers

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Yep, definitely been fitted the wrong way round as the reservoirs are both facing the front of the car and just had the wheel off and the brake line is tight against the reservoir. I will need to turn full lock and see if it gets any tighter.....

    anyone know if its a big deal which way round you mount the dampers.......I have always has the remote reservoir behind the strut (to the right looking at it ) but just got the car back from Rentech and they have fitted them the other way. Mike had finished for the day so cant check with him...

    Out of interest what does 'dampers sealed by mark fish' actually mean? How does he seal them? Lovely example btw Thanks

    Cheers for the info. Will just buy one of the many shoddy ones on ebay then and send him that to get done up. 2 months wait is worth it. Gear knob does look nice too. Will look into that now...

    Does anyone know if there is a certain condition that my current thumb grips need to be in to get this done? Cheers

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Just seen this question is addressed in another thread. Sorry. Guess I will have to ask for them to be matched in a soft setting and then leave them alone. has anyone done this and did they notice a difference. Car will be road use only. Cheers

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Equally, if I do get them unpinned and matched to the standard 20 clicks, and later decide to set to 0 clicks myself for a 'softer' ride, I guess I risk not having a matched set as it has been posted that one person required 18 and 22 clicks for a middle damping match. For example, i may need...

    If I get mine unpinned can you make the damper feel softer/better ride quality for normal road use or is the difference too small to notice?
