Just been reading the post about unnecessary work being done on a van and it got me thinking - we were told at our MOT that one shock absorber was about to go and the other would need replaced soon. We had earmarked getting this work done in January ready for Easter and summer hols but now a bit concerned. It has not been that easy finding a company in the first place who could do work on the van in the Gatwick area (van in storage) and the company we use for our car is nowhere near and doesn't have the facilities for a van so we were just trusting what they said. We are fairly new to motorhoming and there doesn't appear to be any obvious sign of the shock absorbers going (no veering when braking, vibration through steering wheel though it is not the smoothest ride. That said, the van is 2002 with 72,000 miles so perhaps it is best to just get them replaced?
