How soon are you thinking. Long weekend this weekend.

Tools. 8mm spanner, 13mm socket and 17mm socket, don't worry if you don't have them, I'm sure there's plenty round here somewhere.

I will be in this afternoon, but I have the hated Xantia coming here for new brake hoses and the ABS fault sorting.

Monday would be better?

Strut is still groany, though it is better than it was, probably put up with it for the time being.

I'll have a look this morning to see if there is another strut.

Can't see one, but if you wanted to come up at the weekend, I could call and check to see if the red estate is still in the yard up the road, it has 2 known good ones.

That would be ace Ken, how much would scrappy want for both of them??

ken newbold · Post by **ken newbold** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:38 pm

I would think £15 each. But I could buy 1

MULLEY · Post by **MULLEY** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:49 pm

I might need both, as i want to get the Gti back on the road, & i think i have a knackered strut on that one as well, similar symptons as the pipes keep blowing off, only difference is there isnt stacks of lhm being sprayed everywhere, might be a flat accumulator possibly? dunno? at that price it would be a good idea to have a spare anyway. What do you think?

ken newbold · Post by **ken newbold** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:53 pm

For sure.

I will call and make sure the car is still there.
