Both rear shocks need replacing - does anyone know of somewhere reasonably priced...? I'm guessing Kwik Fit and the the other large chains are places to avoid?

Where in the S.E are you?

It's a pretty easy job and I wouldn't bother paying a premium to a specialist just to do that. If you have a good local garage I'd get them to do it - or have a go yourself, should only take an hour.

OE parts from here if you do : http://www.c3bmw.co.uk/StockItem.asp?categoryID=97...

Thanks Duff - I had no idea the shocks are so cheap! I'm based in Guildford, so anywhere near here would be good
