I've been getting a knocking sound from the shocks for a wee while now but everything seemed ok so left it as i'm unemployed (with the proviso i'd keep an eye on tyres etc).
A mate spotted tonight that the near side tyre is bald right down the centre (plenty of grip on the edges) and there's no way that it's been over-inflated.
I think i'm looking at replacing the front shocks and that tyre at a minimum, trouble is i don't know the part number required for the shocks.
My mechanic says he can get shocks for £40 each but i've a sneaky suspicion that they'll not be the sport suspension shocks but the standard ones (is it definitely these i'll need?)
Any info much appreciated guys, thanks in advance for your help.
