Don't know but he only posts to a German address.

Why not ask him? Most germans seem to speak perfect English

Looks a good price with only six hours to go.!!

what he's saying is they are only for models up to the facelift ie:99 i geuss the question is are pre and post facelift shocks and springs the same?? also only good for limosine due to caravan being heavier rated on the back axle springs, also he has lost the certification for these so that will be why they are cheap as without certification in Germany you get trouble but he says you can get this certification through irmscher but just another hassle!

I already asked him for the compatibility:

Hello

I have a Opel Omega B Facelift Saloon (Limousine) 2,5DTI (BMW 6cyl motor, 110kW). Can I install your suspension kit on my car?

Thank you.

And the answer:

hello, i dont know, maybe!? my car was a 4cyl motor...ciao


So if anyone know that the preface and the facelift suspensions are the same, I do not hesitate! They are the part numbers on the auction, they are not the same numbers that the facelift on the irmscher brochure...

have a look here it's a bit vague but doesn't seem to be any change after 97 but as for the ratings for these springs that's another question as i can imagine these are rated for the 4 pot but i can't find any part numbers to see which model they suit anywhere!!

See the irmscher web site, iirc they list the various models, and seem to run with engine size,the 4 pots, v6s I believe have different part numbers, they will probably fit, but the spring may well be too soft for your engine size causing ride hight issues.

So in short I would say no, not for your TD,which I believe is haeavier than the v engine. And certainly heavier than a 4pot, assuming I have translated the advert correctly they are for a 4 cylinder car....?

But I am sure you could list them over here with out any problems selling on...I would have thought :-/ :y

o.k finally have looked up the gutachten for these back springs fine but you need v6 springs for the front (rated at about 100kg difference) unfortunately i have the same problem being an estate i can use the fronts but not the backs! good find though! for front springs you need part no.74703001

Bought them! If they're not compatible, I will sell them here, on the "for sale" section if interest?

they will fit i have no doubt but not the right rating these are only rated to 980 kg and you need 1030 but either way the shocks are worth what you paid alone!
