Cracked rear spring...

**mole** · 06-02-2008, 04:57 PM

Have a cracked rear spring I noticed a few weeks ago that I need to get sorted.
What parts do I need to order other than the spring itself (I was going to get both replaced at the same time)? Are the "Spring Pads" worth doing or not really?
Where is the cheapest place to get new springs... BMW quoted £90-£100 each (need VIN to confirm).

Thanks

Rich

Hi Rich
I can get the sping for £84.49 each retail inc VAT
and £76.49 each Trade inc VAT

From BMW

You dont need the rubbers.
And bmw just change the broken spring not them both

Thanks Mark, perfect answer as always, top marks

So would £84.49 be what my dealer would probably quote if I ring back with my VIN ?
