Hi on my 2006 C4S I'm going to do a front end suspension overall this winter


Looking for thoughts on which parts I should replace the car has done 90k still feels quite right but I do have a slight rattle over bumps which it did not fail on the MOT because if

Ideas welcome

Have you considered Center Gravity? They will do a complete system check of brakes, suspension and steering and advice as well as set the geometry (which will be required if you need any suspension bits changing -which it sounds as though it does).

Unless of course you're a DIYer and enjoy doing it all for yourself.
 
Hi so I have been looking around in various websites

I'm thinking to replace the following

Control arms lower x2 £130
Stabiliser bar bush x2 £10.22
Drop link front x2 (sided L&R)£29.50 + £29.50
Track rod end x2 £53.96

All from 911.co.uk total £303.82
Wishbone x 2 £105.00

From the stop shop uk

So all in £408.82

Does anyone have any other suggestions

Thanks in advance
 
Strut mounts are made for Porsche by SACHS, google them & buy from somewhere like getcarparts.co.uk for about £40 a side.
 
Right one cue as I am booking my 06 C4S for some similar work! I've already had the suspensio diagnosed by my indy and he has suggested the following work:

- Front longitudinal arms
- ARB refurb (new bushes and general tidy up)
- Front inner track arm ball joints
- 4 wheel alignment (required post new ball joints)

My car is on 66k miles and the only issue is a bit of a "thud" sound when going over speed bumps at low speed.

Sorry but I'm no expert, would I need top mounts and bump stops too?

Are any of my list above the same as what has been already listed by others?
