module

[frankman]

Seems  my 520  estate  ,2013,    rear  suspension  needs  a  new  module  ...wondering  where  best   i  might  get  this ...also  what  sort  of  cost  should  be  as  in  as  much  as  i  can  see  prices  vary  a  lot  ?   ta  again  in  advance

Morning Frank

How are you so sure the car needs a suspension module? Not saying they can't fail but in a long time I haven't seen one that has.

Just take a look at www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box it will bring up your model then search rear axel for the part you want or take out the one you have and take the part number from there. Once you have the part number Google for the best price and supply. Your choices are Second User or New

Ta  for  that  Dave  ....mech  seems  think   its  where  the  problem  is  ut  i  hear  what  your   saying  about  never  having  seen  one  fail ...  rang  around  today  and  found  out  its  main  dealer  only  availability  !!!   so  rang  them  ....never  told  me  sit  down  before  telling  me  price ........1440  euro  PLUS    vat ...  so  definitely  have  think  again  ...have  seen  converting  to   conventional   shocks/springs(?)  seems  be  what  some  owners  do  ..have  least    try  get  some  idea  what  cost  that  might  be  to do  that  before   decide   on  solution  ...   might  be  my  age  but   really  really  annoying how  they  just  made  cars  more  and  more  'complicated'  for  seemingly  no  reason  other  than  their  idea  of  progress....iv  rallied/rallycrossed  imps  on and  off  for  50  years  and  not  alone  is  their  suspension  all  round  very   simple/ effective and  inexpensive ...but  even  i  can  change  any/all  of  it  in  few  hours ...sorry  rant  over  ...

Thanking  you  again
