coilover fitting service

Featured Replies

Hi, is there anyone in or around the York area, that knows how to fit a full set of weitec coilovers? I will pay of course.

If not , do you know of any good garage that would fit them? plus how much should it cost me?

Thanks for any help peeps.

Chris.

Hi,i am in the york area & would off fitted them for you but my boss is a co*k & has stopped me doing jobs in our workshop! (even though i have to mend his car!) you could ring stu at chapmans garage in heworth 01904 424597. or dave or colin at garage services in james street york 01904 431101. i dont know what they would charge you but both are good honest garages. :thumbup: (tell them mike ford from army workshops at strensall past on their number)

Cheers

Yep, that was me, you were coming out of the top of Usher lane.

Nice one if you know I good mechanic, had a price off a good fella from Chapmans but he said the ride height might be a pain, the coilovers I'm getting are set to drop the car as low as possible (50mm) too low for my liking, about 30mm would be good, so the height will need sorting.

Cheers.

have seen garages charging around £250 which seems a little high imo but is a kind of going rate in the south east

I go from seeing one other VRS from time to time in the four years I've had the old girl and then in one day, I find out that there are at least 4 nearly next door to me :rofl:

If any of you boys need a hand with any thing or a code reader, then just send me a message :thumbup:

P.S I have sh!t loads of detailing stuff you can borrow!

And your not too far away from unit18! I managed to find a vw specialist in York who'd fit them for £100 plus vat, a lot cheaper than some places
