any experience with reworked struts by Chevronics?

Post by aronus »

Hello together,

Has anyone of you ever sent front struts to Chevronics for having them reworked?
I have bought a pair of old ones and I am planning to send them there. I know that it is expensive, but if this settles the matter once and for all times, it would be worth it.

Regards from Stuttgart/Germany

I have never used Chevronics for this service but have used Pleiades in Sawtry, Cambridgeshire (https://www.facebook.com/p/Pleiades-Car ... cale=en_GB) and was very happy with their work.

NB they are true experts and have been repairing Citroen hydraulics for many many years. Despite having a facebook page they're not very 'online' so it's best to give them a phone call (as long as your conversational/Citroen English is ok!) to discuss things

Chevronics would send them to Pleiades, I would have thought.
