just done this. compressing the spring to be able fit strut on is an almost trouser filling experience! banana springs are the devil's work!

if you are finding hard putting the strut back into the knuckle. you can first put the strut into the knuckle while it is all diassembled and thiten it up. then someone lifts the whole assembly while another person puts the upper strut nut in place. I tried the method used in the video but it just slipped. this method worked immidiatly and saves you a lot of time.

also this is a two person job

Salve, per Citroen ds3 1, 4 vti del 2011 il manuale di officina dice che il foro del tampone e quello interno al motore .
E possibile sapere se il foro e interno o esterno come nel video ? Ottimo video grande lavoro😊

Hola me sirvio mucho el video son pocos los de c3 que te dicen el torque, una consulta viendo en un manual me figura el apriete de los 3 tornillos que agarran la rotula a la parrilla 5, 5 daN.m . Puede ser ?

[alfbittner]

So glad to find this on you tube. I've followed this whole procedure and have changed out the struts, only thing is now the auto will not select reverse or drive. What have I done?. Can you trouble shoot why I have lost transmission please.

[derrickmason]

Does the hub need to come off the driveshaft, or can the hub assembly be pushed down off the end of the strut.??

[giuseppinatinti]

Nice string compressor. What is the brand and model?

[adrianward]

An excellent video, can you please advise on a suitable hub puller?

I don't have locating pins on my top mounts. The mounts came with holes only. What's the correct orientation in citroen C3 II a51 2011 on the lhs ??

[badabingit]

Regarding the strut.. it's 21 mm for disassemble 2:26 and 22 mm 6:38 for assembling the strut ? :-D

[adicatanescu]

Does anyone know where can I find that type of hexagonal outer deep socket.? The one used to remove the top mount with the hex in the inside of it to keep the shock absorber from spinning. Thanks for the video anyway.

[e.f.]

Wo kommen generell die pinne vom domlager hin? Im Video sind sie außen. Auf beiden Seiten?

[davidrodriguez-ihzu]

Hola buenas tarde. Puse los dos amortiguadores y cazoletas y arriba en la parte de arriba de las cazoletas no quedo bien en el centro.. Eso esta bien??

[braf]

Questo e quello sinistro vorrei sapere se il perno del supporto ammortizzatore destro deve uscire sempre sul buco più esterno come il sinistro oppure sul buco interno?
