New Seat Sport damper needed.

[Ninja]

Sorry if this has been answered before.. I did a quick search and couldnt really see what i was after

Anyway today i had a new set of springs fitted to my cupra. Ive been having a few problems recently with the handling at the rear of the car and was hoping something became obvious..

Anyway the drivers rear side suspension came out and was covered in oil and black crap :

My mate who was fitting the springs says he reckons the damper seal had gone. The damper still appeared to work ok but im guessing i need to get a new one fitted ASAP!!!

Anyway the car was fitted with the seat sport suspension kit and im just wondering where the best place would be for a replacement.

Is this something that i can only get from Seat or might i be able to get one from GSF or something like that ? Any ideas how much i might be looking at ?

I managed to get the part number off the other side... Im presuming both sides (at the rear) are identical ?

Sorry if im thick but i appreciate the advice

Many thanks

Might be wrong, but isnt seat sport kit eibach springs?

So the sport suspension is just springs ? I presumed that it had been springs and shocks ???

The SEAT sport suspension kit is EIBACH springs with BILSTEIN dampers.

Hope this helps.
