    Cost of AVO refurb?

    May have to refurb an AVO coilover front strut, not sure if they will honour the warranty.

    The top mount adjuster has sheared completely off.

    Thanks, I believe they are under warranty.

    They have emailed me back to send the bad one over and they will sort something out

    They have never been used. To be honest, even forced to use to the lowest setting on damping on the fronts, and setting 6 on rear, it has made a very marked improvement. It's not soft, but there is quite a bit or roll from front but it grips like a bugger and has rid the car of several annoying habits like tramlining, bouncing about, crashiness and on/off oversteer and understeer. Most impressed!

    Even in these shitty conditions, I am getting loads of grip from the front now. It's similar to standard, but less roll, and it looks mean still lowered

    cool, i generally run mine about 3 turns on the front(think its about 4-5max) and about 10 clicks at rear, fairly bumpy on back roads tbh lol but on track its been great!
