My dads got a 2.5td omega and he's needing new rear shocks so i found some on ebay but dont know if they the right ones, all it says is they off a omega saloon, im just wandering if all rear shocks are the same for the different engines or specs. any info would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

Hi
The only differents that i know of are on the elites, they have air valves built into the shocker asorbers for the self leveling, the differents would be with the road springs and they are colour coded.

I'm pretty sure that all saloons (except Elite) utilise the same shocks.
Estate versions are different though too.

They certainly are!
When Saloon shocks are fitted to an estate in error, it doesn't half bounce around & hit the stops over bumps!
