Evening all,
Got a 2013 GTD with 56k on clocks which has both front shocks starting to weep ever so slightly. Having raised this with VW and found them to be not remotely interested as usual, I'm planning to replace them some time soon as they are going to need doing at some point now they are starting to leak. I just want to know whether you think it is worth getting the front springs replaced at the same time as the shocks are done?? The reason I ask is that I am currently doing 25k a year and with current mileage already on, don't really want to be going back into it all in 6 months for a spring? The springs look ok when looking up through the wheelarch but I just wondered whether you think it's worth it? Independent has quoted me £250 per side for new shocks, springs, top mounts and bearings all genuine and fitted...
Thanks,
Jamie
