    Bilstein problems

    as i thought, picked up the car today after giving it to a garage with new H&R's, Bilstein sprints Front: P30-3006 Rear: P36-3058. they told me that the rears did not fit the rear but they did fit on the front, and the fronts fitted neither. so they have fitted the rears to the front and i have the fronts in the box not fitted, but have fitted the H&Rs all round. How can the rears fit the front? have bilstein got the part no.s wrong?

    anyone got any experience with this? so now i need to "find" a bilstein that will fit the rear. fs

          Doesn't sound great!! Never trust a garage! I've even had trouble with a so called speciallist!! Just do it yourself. I just did my suspension (never attempted anything like this myself before) and it wasn't too bad! Just do your research, make sure you've got the right tools and get a BTDT from somewhere then go for it!!
