Patrick Taylor Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Having posted that I'd found a broken Gaz shock absorber on my GT4S, on going through my receipts (and checked the car) I've found it was an Avo shock that has fractured where the lower eye is welded on. I thought it was worth putting the record straight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Taylor Posted May 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 I contacted Avo and they want to see/refurb the shocks. They have only done 7000 miles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Taylor Posted June 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Both dampers have been returned, serviced/repaired/replaced FOC, with red polybush inserts fitted. Old-fashioned service, with no fuss and no show. I am very impressed! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badwolf Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 Patrick - Old fashioned quality service. You can't beat it and great to know that it still exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Taylor Posted July 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Finally got the shocks fitted yesterday, along with new rear spring bushes; the mechanic was swearing as he needed to use heat to burn out the old bushes, and remove a seized bolt, on a near-30 degree day. Took cold beer as a peace offering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
