Shame the seller can't spell Citroen correctly. Confused

How much should they be? I have no clue.
#3
The yellow ones are about £100 each shock new iirc. I had a set on the 1.4 back in the day, I didn't buy them though. Not sure whats different about the red ones though.

Red ones never used to adjust as it's the entry level one, The yellows do either by the top or a Koni pain in the arse way of twisting the spindle which means stripping them down

i had konis on my 306 u have to push the rods right in then you rotate them upto 720 degrees to get full hard setting so you basically take front struts off and remove spring to adjust them easier on the rear but same sketch piston in untill bottom of stroke then rotate upto 720 . ididnt like them way too much rebound just gone to bilstein b6 not tryed them yet but got them on my m3 and they ace on there

that was yellow koni when i bought them they were 250 for all 4 and a pair of front springs

I won the red ones, hope they do adjust or I'll be complaining to the seller for sure.

Going by the Yellow Konis on a 205, they're rock hard (the rears especially). Great for making the back end of a 205 slide on a track, not sure about the road though.

I wouldn't say rock hard (have had cheap shite worse!) but they are stiffer yeah, rears made rear end even more skippy over rough ground. Fronts were adjustable by a little round thing on top of the shock iirc, but I don't know if they're all the same.

Oh dear, I'll have to guess how I want them because I'm not stripping them every week to decied how I want them.



#16

#19
Ive just bought some bilstein b4 shocks ninja
#20
These should be a direct fit for a 306?
Anyone know what sort of damping rates these are relative to standard and how good they are?

Also, assuming this is the rear damper to suit?
