I find it kinda odd that Weitec's use plastic rings.

I am 99% sure that someone on either VWVortex or E38 did a coilover service, pretty sure it was E38. I'll ask around for you.

new adjusters being sourced from KW as we speak,

talked themselves out of overhauling them

strip them, clean them, cut old rings off,

fit new, slam its arse as far down as my balloon  :rolleyes: tyres allow  :grin:
