Can anyone tell me if its ok to just replace the 1 shock or both at the same time as my front passenger has started to knock.

Saving up for a house deposit so every little counts as they say , if anyone has a ball park figure on the cost would be ace, so I can do some garage haggling face to face .

I'd always replace shocks, springs, brakes etc in pairs, that way you know the braking will be even and you can't put a price on safety.
