Vauxhall only for the self levelling but not too expensive if you have or know someone with a trade card ;)

I am sorry overzealous drive to help and not read properly, apologies.  I recently changed coils on my car and that was uppermost on my mind.

Apologies for the clutter post and is there a way to delete your post if there is I can delete it too.

You could try Autovaux, might be cheaper than Vx dealer even with trade discount.

I had both mine replaced today on my saloon, independant garage charged me £250 all in to supply and fit, could have done them myself but the MOT is tomorrow and my local dealer is rubbish at sourcing anything!
