This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is it possible to rebuild the standard shocks on a 996.1 c2? Don't think I need anything yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. What are the standard units? Boge? Can any other 'inserts' be used? The likes of bilsteins? More interested to know than actually needing anything

POST 2Original post

They are Bilstein B4 equivalent. The front are twin tube and not rebuildable but rears are mono tube and are. This is what I was told by Bilstein when I asked.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's good to know. I'm guessing no one really bothers with this and just go for new units.

POST 4Original post

Price up an MO30 kit from Porsche which in my view, point for pound, is the best value suspension refresh for a 996.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Don't really need it. Just more interested in options. I was told my car had m030 but I think it sits quite high. I do find it fairly stiff though

POST 6Original post

You need to check that out as mine is not particularly harsh and sits nice on MO30

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Think mine sits higher than yours. Might not be overly harsh but I'd expected a bit smoother tbh

POST 8Original post

M030 is only a 10mm drop. I think 4Ss have it as standard and it's firm but not harsh.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Are there any identifiable markings on the m030 shocks?

POST 10Original post

The OE springs have different coloured dots of paint to identify, if still visible, at this stage maybe not. the shocks are only identifiable by part number if still visible, may not accessible while on the car you can only Jack it up and look I guess. Check the PET for the numbers etc.
