Default Near New Nivomat Shock.

Hi Folks.

One near-new XC90 Nivomat Shock Absorber (less than 5 months/4k miles).

No REASONABLE offer refused, buyer collects or pays P&P

Why only one..? Read on...

I bought ONE new Nivomat shock after we had a unit start leaking oil on our MY04 XC90 SE... Had the unit fitted and the front path cleaned...

Unfortunately, this was a real lesson in why it's best to replace shocks in pairs... The ride was awful with one 100k+ shock and one new one...

A few months later, I was offered a complete set of brand new Gas/Air shocks and matching Springs... Bargain price, so on they went...

I also still have the 100K+ shock (no leaks, but lower rubber bush is a bit singed as the retaining bolt had to be heated to remove it from the car...)

Also have the road-springs too... Both 100k+ miles, but no damage...

Please pm me if interested in any of these parts. Ta...
