Astra CDTI SRI Springs (56 plate estate)

Geodark

Anyone know how I can tell if my car has sports suspension or not? I need to change a rear spring and there are two different spring sizes. Its a 56 plate ASTRA 1.7 CDTI SRI Estate - and I notice that on some of the selling sites they state "not for sports suspension" where other state "not for SRI", from what I can tell the SRI has springs that are 15mm shorter than the standard ones - but can't seem to find that out for 100%

You could goto Vauxhall with the vin number.

haha, never thought of that - could always pretend I am after a price from them, then go elsewhere. Will buzz them tomorrow.

Check on http://ecat24.com/opel/catalog/models/1/ it's the GM spare parts website.The Vectra C SRI has sports suspension so I would expect the Astra SRI to have as well.

do not forget it is recommended to change both sides as both will be worn/weaker.
