[s-cars] Bilstein's

[Randy Reimer]

I paid USD 476.79 for Bilstein HD's from www.eshocks.com aka Dons Motor
Sports in Detroit.  Worked out quite well.

Thanks, Robert.
I bought my set from ( hiding head in shame ) TAP, somehow I don't think
they will be all that forthcoming with such kinds of generous acts.
If I were to call Shox.com I wonder if they would stand behind the warranty
?

  I purchased a set of Bilsteins for the front of my urS6.  One gave up the
ghost after a while.  I called shox.com (I bought the first set from them)
and asked about warranty service.  I was told, "Order a new pair.  Pay for
them with your credit card and then return the defective cartridge for
evaluation.  If it is bad we will refund the new purchase."

  I did.  It was.  They did - for BOTH new cartridges.  I did have to call a
second time but they honored the warranty.

    Well, it's just over 4 years, and about 50-60,000 KM I have a right
front
    bilstein shock that rattles my fillings at 160 KM (100 MPH). At 170 KM
it
    barley drivable.

    Is there any BTDT on getting warranty service on these things ?
    Especially any Canadian experience with US purchased shocks ?
    These are supposed to be lifetime warranty right ? I overpaid for them
way
    back then, and I will be damned if I buy Bilsteins again if they don't
    support there product.

    Any feedback ?
    Thanks,
