Anyone know who can repair/refurb a standard Bilstein non-adjustable damper? Its from an S2 Elise and needs a new piston rod.
I've mailed the UK contact through the Bilstein website but had no response.

I've just had two shocks overhauled by Bilstein in Leicester,terrific service

Out of interest, approximate cost?I couldn't fault the service,remarkably excellent
Glad to hear their customer service has improved - I received appalling service from them back in 2008 when they rebuilt my S2 LSS dampers.
Initially they claimed they hadn't received my dampers until I pointed out that I had signed proof that they had got them - at which point they said "in that case, they must be here somewhere"! After this bad start, the quoted 4-week turnaround ended up being 12 weeks and that was with me chasing them weekly once they were late. Seriously unimpressed although they did a good job of the rebuild (which I'm still running now).
