Hi all . I have to renew my rear shock absorbers in my vectra 2.2 dti sxi as one is leaking and feels like im driving on baloons. Is this a fairly easy job to tackle myself or is it best left to a garage?
thanks

Fairly straight forward job mate , have a look in the how 2 section of the forum there is a guide there.
If your replaceing with like for like dont buy vauxhall shocks but get the bilsten B4 units will last a lot longer than standard.

Is it okay to have standard shocks on the front and B4's on the rear? (got the same problem and dont want to get the rubbish vauxhall ones again!)
Thats what i've just done,the rear shocks were shot so replaced with B4's,its rides fine now,will repalce the fronts in due course,hth..........
cool
many thanks guys!
Bilsten B4 are equal to vauxhall shocks in every way except one , they are made a lot better
