[Ben.]

after spending £500 getting my car MOT'd and fully serviced today;

i now need the following;

-2 rear tyres
-2 new rear bearings
-o/s rear coil spring broken

can anyone give a rough quote how much this will cost me (not at main dealer)

on a 02 1.2 dynamique?

so fed up, i have spent about £2k fixing my car in the last 18 months, i am so close to just selling up

[DrR]

£200 not fitted.

 

[Ben.]

ouch, that will double including labour then

 

[Beef-Mc]

2 Tyres, £100 fitted,
2 New Bearings £80 plus labour,
Broken spring, £20 off here or £40 new, fit it yourself.

 

[Ben.]

^ ta

im guessing its a hard job to change the rear bearings?

also what actually is a rear coil spring?

 

[DrR]

you know the suspension spring!

 

[Ben.]

surely if it is broken i wouldnt be able to drive on it?

an excuse for lowering maybe

 

[Beef-Mc]

You can drive on it without a prob, mines was broken, must likely just the little bit at the end.

As for rear bearings, the old man fitted them for me, so can't be too hard to do.

 

[AlexG]

two tyres are 80-100 quid fitted max
wheels bearings are probally 70-80 quid both fitted
and i dont know about the suspension sorry

 

[Jaff]

I about a set of springs off another member, but he sent me 2 lowered rear springs and 2 standard ones. i'm waiting on the lowered front ones.

if he dont want the standards back i'll happly sell them. £25 a piece posted.?

 

[Fred@BTM]

easy you can have a rear spring off me for free (10min to fit)
rear bearings are £25 per side, £20 to have them put in (if you take the drums off yourself)
rear tyres about £100 the pair

 

[Batman]

or do what i did

new rear drum £18
new rear wheel bearing kit £17

and fit it yourself piece of cake, i couldnt remove old bearings from old hubs but i managed to fit new bearings in new hubs with abit of persuasion
