    two rear springs for the suspension.

    I've checked ebay before for other things but unless you can buy new I'm dubious about buying from them.

  • try https://www.dixonsvauxhallspares.co.uk Any vauxhall astra rear springs will fit if they're of a similar age, they don't need to be diesel ones, so second hand ones will do.

    Hello Keanosafc

    Your thread will be better placed in the 'Motoring & Public Transport' board, so I'll move it across.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Regards

    I used http://www.vauxallparts.co.uk/ when the Gear Linkage needed replacing, on my Corsa, my local Vauxhall Dearship wanted £96 + around £78 for fitting, so i bought an original Brand New part from Vaux all parts for £42.20 + P&P ( Fully guaranteed ) and got a m8 to fit it.

    There will be variations depending on the age of the car and the type of the car, an estate has heavy duty springs on it where the hatch and saloon dont.

    My dads astra estate had a new pair fitted to the back a few month ago, the parts werent that much and fitting wasnt stupid either I think it was about £156 I remember picking it up and paying, he had the MOT done at the same time so knock £30 odd quid off that. but whatever you do replace both sides dont just replace the broken one or you will lean to one side ;)
  • I second https://www.autovaux.co.uk very reasonable and quick service,used them a few times and always been cheaper than ebay!
