I fitted b4's to my car a few months ago, sadly one rear has failed prematurely.

I've also promised the use of my car for something in the next couple of weeks so may be stuck.

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

Hi guys, Hope you are all doing well. Need to ask a favour, does anyone have a rear shock kicking around for a 996.1 c2 coupe?? I fitted b4's to my car a few months ago, sadly one rear has failed prematurely. The place I got them from won't refund, only replace. I need to return the old unit for inspection, this leaves my c2 off of the road, and I'm not sure how long it will take, they said it could be a while. I wondered if anyone had an old spare or pair of rears for a c2 kicking around that I could take off their hands? Sadly I bayed the old ones oops. I've also promised the use of my car for something in the next couple of weeks so may be stuck. Cheers, Steve
