Does this look right? Or do I need new set up??

[Nat8701]

I have bilsteins fitted to my clio approx 5 years old.. Do they look ok? The suspension is good, driving it I wouldn't say the suspension has gone.. Time for a change?

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

So just to be sure .. your suspension isn't showing any faults and it doesn't feel faulty when driving, but you're asking if you should change it ?

No, but you need a new exhaust hanger.

 

[Nat8701]

Exhaust is in tomorrow morning for new one feels ok but previous owner ain't kept on top of cleaning it so not sure if it seized :-( I have boon told it is and also told it isn't

Seen some odd faults in my time but pretty sure I've never seen a clio with a seized rear beam

 

[Nat8701]

Was referring to the rear springs.. Cheers tho nowt like a friendly group!!

Is this sarcasm?

It's impossible for anyone on here to tell if something is seized by looking at it. Spring don't seize though, the damper won't and your beam won't have either. These all move when driving so don't get stuck. Just look for leaks on the shocks. You can paint them to stop corrosion.

Car is too low though

There not bilstien springs though. Bilstiens are blue, not red. They look like vmaxx springs to me.

Bilsteins kit with eibach springs. looking to buy RB so not changing set up

Height of a car is personal preference. I'm happy with the height and any lower I may struggle with speed bumps. Seen a lot lower

My old Vmaxx springs (both sets) used to coil up like that where the top 3 coils touch when compressed.

I've had 2 sets of Eibach springs and they've never looked like that :S

 

[Nat8701]

These have been on years hence why I asked should I change. Lol

You are correct.
