How to replace the rear shock absorbers of the Opel Meriva A

Model: Vauxhall Meriva Meriva A, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Shocks

In this video, we see how to change the rear shock absorbers of an Opel Meriva version A: we lift the car and remove the rear wheels, then clean the shock absorber with a wire brush and spray it well with WD-40, which will help us remove the shock absorber mounting bolts, and then remove the component. We can easily find the new parts, for example on E-Bay with the code 325780689874 at a price of 49.04 euros per pair, with free delivery. We reattach them in place, securing them with new bolts, then spray some copper grease for better sealing. We can put the wheel back in place and lower the car.
