Im contemplating doing a track day soon in my T, and just wondering what settings to have the front dampers set to for it.
Its got un-pinned dampers up font with MF springs all round and on the standard rear shocks. Cheers...
Hi - my dampers due to go in at BG on October 31st. Getting the struts power coated too.
It's expensive enough already (and have been happily buying other bits for my new car without keeping an eye on what i'm spending!) - and adds another £170 to the bill.
Has anyone done this, and if you...

Hi,
Can anybody tell me,
Are the koni adj rear shocks that people fit, better than the standard Sachs.?
Im not after a harder ride, just a bit more compliant , Do the konis adjust to a softer setting than the Sachs.?

Has anyone found a way of perhaps trying to prolong the life of the Sachs? We know that they can suffer with road salt/dirt so just wonder if anyone else has come up with a solution to protect them. I'm not sure where the failure occurs, whether it leaks at the top of the body of the main tube...
Hello
Selling my sachs front dampers due to selling my 182, they are in very good condition for what they are, no score marks and are both rock solid. Was intending to get them powder coated and check over at cornering force, and if needed a quick refurb.

Hi guys
Looking for some advice - my driver's Recaro has developed a very irritating rattle. It sounds like a ball bearing or a screw; when I accelerate it goes one way and then the other when I brake; it's very annoying!
I've searched around the web but cannot find any answers. From listening...
Hi,
I've just had my dampers back from Simon at Cornering Force and don't hesitate to fully recommend his service.
They are now 'unpinned' and so I want to try and understand what the adjuster actually does and to what degree.
Does anyone have a damper curve for the Sachs at different levels...

Hi, I'm sure this has been asked many a time but I just want to be sure (: my trophy has started ticking when it's up to temperature and idling. The ticking increases with the revs, up to about 2000rpm then goes away. Is this the dephaser pulley on its way out? Anyone else experienced this? I'm...
My clickers have seen better days and I can't hear or feel the clicks sometimes.
I am hoping to return them to the standard 22 clicks but as I say the clicker seems a bit vague.
I was wondering how many clicks are in a full turn, if anybody has ever tried/tested this before.
Any information...
Hi

I have had several phone conversations with him, mithering him with questions and understanding what happens and what to expect.
For background, he is a very knowledgeable chap and is involved in the Amd Golf...

Good day chaps!
My recent MOT revealed a leaking driver's side damper. So it's my intention to whip the shocks off, send them to BG for refurb, off which i have just emailed. Just a note, I emailed Mark Fish first, who basically said use BG as they have the market covered for this job.

Hello all, haven't posted here for a while. Still have my T :D it's on 19000m and recently had the dampers serviced at BG.
I had a question about getting the geo/camber done please. Since the dampers were taken out, I've lost the tracking, wheel alignment and camber and need to get it all...
Just got a call from BG and they have no adjustors in stock and won't have any for 6 weeks. My refurb is booked for the 11th of August :(
To add to the matters, I've just bought the Mark Fish stuff and have a track day on the 31 of August.
I'm also moving to Aberdeen in 2 months for a year...

Hey guys,
The Sachs are coming off '380' later as they're booked in with Ben on the 8th. I've noticed a lot of people saying that they've had the struts un-pinned to allow adjustment to the damping. I've had a quote of £25.00 each + vat, is it worth me getting this done while they're away?
Hi, Can you change the headlights on our cars to the xenon headlight unit on the clio 182. im looking at buying a pair of xenon 182 headlights for my car. Could you let me know
Thanks
