    Suspension refresh/ rebuild

    Thanks for the reply burrellbloke, It's not so much a softer ride but rather damping that absorbs bumps at speed and ability to keep to a chosen line. The rear seems to spend most of it's time crashing and banging into the bump stops and deflecting up off the road and at times from where I'd...

    They were £133 last weekend when I ordered a set but when I first looked a few days before they were £168 :think: I guess Autodoc run regular limited run discounts on items.

    Suspension refresh/ rebuild

    I've got a 2011 200 cup (small top mount) with 60k miles and it had H&R springs fitted when I bought it along with 25mm H&R spacers and I'm now planning a full refresh of the suspesnion. The car is used as my daily for a 20 mile round trip commute, with the odd detour on the way home if I have...

    Acoustic valve

    Sorry to bring an old thread back :oops: I have a 200 but the tube to the throttle body is blanked off with a rubber bung from the car having had a KTR induction kit, and the acoustic valve has the tube that connects between them missing. What parts are required to connect this up as the tube...

    Windscreen washers

    Hi looking to replace my washer nozzles to the fan spray type but while I was under the bonnet yesterday I noticed one of the washer hoses had a small split where it connects to the existing nozzle so I will need some hose. Does anybody know the size of the hose and material? I believe it's 4mm...

    197/200 Dampers

    Exactly what I'm trying to decide, once you replace top mounts, damper gaitors, rear spring mounting rubbers top and bottom, along with springs and dampers you have pretty much paid for Yellowspeeds. Bilsteins work out more expensive as they need top mounts I've yet to hear a comparison between...

    197/200 Dampers

    The early cup dampers for the 197 have a much softer damping setting than the cup option for the late 200 (small top mounts) so I was trying to discover if they were mix and match but from your answer it's cup or non cup dampers specific to the late 200 as the spring platform on the dampers are...

    197/200 Dampers

    I've read somewhere that the early front dampers dont fit the later smaller top mounts but I've not seen it confirmed anywhere? Is the top mounting point on the damper different to suit the larger top mounts? From previous experience it's just a large fixing nut on the top of the damper to...

    197/200 Dampers

    My 200 is a late car with the small top mounts and as I understand it I can only use the later 200 front dampers either cup or non cup or I can go for coilovers so long as I get the correct version for a small top mount car? Are the spring platforms in a different position on the non cup...

    197/200 Dampers

    What are the differences in dampers between the 197 and 200 cup and non cup? I know there are some damping rate changes along the lines of one is 15% firmer than the other does anybody have the details? Also do the front dampers from the 197 fit a late 200 with small top mounts so long as...

    New member - FF200 & springs question

    I've had a chat with a specialist today while my car is having a couple of bits looked at and they said the Eibach springs are similar to stock cup springs but with a small drop but others say they are a bit more progressive. They said the non cup setup is smoother for fast road but if you are...

    New member - FF200 & springs question

    Welcome to the forum - I'm interested in this topic myself as my 200 FF cup came with H&R springs and H&R 25mm spacers and similar to yourself I'm considering a suspension refresh for bumpy B roads as the rear just bounces around once you get moving way more than my previous Megane 265 cup which...
