[ROVERNET - UK] P6 front shock bushing replacement

[A.G. Opstal van]

I would strongly advise AVO's.
http://www.avouk.com/

These are double adjustable from the outside,
not more costly than KONI"s which btw are Dutch
and not German.
Koni's are fine shocks for normal cars but
less then useless on the front of the P6 on behalf
of the reversed way the frontshocks work and because
the front Koni's are conventional shockers.

Regards,
Lex van Opstal.

Hi Damien,

in Germany we have several companies that manufacture shock absorbers.
Two of them (with high reputation) are Koni and Bilstein:
Look:

www.koni.de (www.koni.com does not seem to work at the moment) and
www.bilstein.de (Could not find shock abs for P6 on their pages)

The Koni part numbers for the P6 are

80-1666 (front axle) and
80-1667 (rear axle).

Another company you may try is Monroe (don't know where they are
located). I recently changed the rear shock absorbers at my P6 3500 and
took Armstrong's; they were not too expensive and they work well.

I wish you lots of success.

Many regards,
Tom.
