Are they both Sachs?

And are they different ratings on the Se & MSport?

Many thanks :thumbsup:

Standard vs M-Sport are different for 3.0si (only checked the fronts).

Have a look on realOEM.

That’s great, that’s all I needed to know really as been having a dabble on Auto.doc and B4’s listed as compatible but Sachs not :thumbsup:

Might be worth checking the Sachs catalogue if they have one online?
