Cup rear shocks?

[ash_s3]

Hi
Ive noticed an oil leak on my nsr shock absorber on my 172 Cup

Just wondered if all shocks are the same on the 172/Cup/182 etc...

cup ones have a different part number afaik they are slightly uprated, other ones will fit however

Any idea how much they are?

Bought cup shocks for my 182 not long ago direct from Renault as one of mine was leaking and they were about £54 each including VAT.

I got my rear shocks for my cup for £70 for both from Renault mate works there happy days gets 40% off

Thats what I paid a couple of months back.

Should i do both even if only one is leaking?

Cant seem to get them cheaper than about £50 from Renault.

 

[Martin_172]

yes should always do them in pairs, on a performance car or anything other than a runabout! they get tired over time, so even though only one is leaking they wont be the same if you fit a brand new one on one side and leave the other on the other side

Thanks Martin,
Is my only option to get genuine Renault items?

Don't go to Renault, get them from Autonation. Was £95 for both and very fast delivery.

Thanks, is that auto-nation.co.uk?

Their price is £49.99 each on the website and i assume delivery is ontop?
