What have you done to your car today?

Fitted Koni Sports shocks all round last weekend, this weekend replaced the top mounts and made sure the spring upper rubbers were seated correctly to remove a knock from the driver's side. Possibly the lower seat on the shock had been knocked (ha) out of alignment as well, they're only press fitted on to the shocks. Few gentle taps seated that back on, reassembled and … no knock!

Wish I'd fitted them a while back to be honest, night and day compared to the Bilstein B4's on M Sport springs.

Very interested in this as I’m literally about to replace it all and was going b4! How much did it cost for the Koni setup?

Fronts are 8741-1450LSPORT & 8741-1450RSPORT, Rears are 8240-1208SPORT twice. Set me back £800.90 from Demon Tweeks with standard delivery. Didn't bother replacing springs, they've only done 10k miles since being fitted. (Lemforder 4008510 x2 & 4208484 x2 for reference.)

The four Bilstein (22-164568, 22-164575, 19-158983 x2) cost me £360.29 in March 2025 for reference. Autodoc, so likely on some sort of discount.
