Hi everyone.
New to the forum and I wish to say that this is the most comprehensive and helpful owners forum I have visited.
I have however a question. Do any 8E/F rear coil spring fit the 406 V6 estate? (mine is a 8E/F).
I do not use Ebay and I would rather have new, reliable parts and I am struggling to find such parts for my poorly, money draining car.

Thanks in advance. :shock:

I believe that all the estates use the same springs, but while servicebox is down, I can't confirm this... :/

If you mean saloon then they'd probably fit but they wouldn't be right.

Rear springs for your D8 V6 estate - 5102 E3
- INJECTION XU7JP4 AND LPG + UNLEADED PETROL AND ESTATE AND GOOD TERRAIN
MARK 3 BLUE
- TURBO INJECTION XU10J2TE AND ESTATE AND GOOD TERRAIN
MARK 3 BLUE
- INJECTION ES9J4 AND ESTATE AND GOOD TERRAIN
MARK 3 BLUE
- TURBO DIESEL XUD11BTE AND ESTATE AND GOOD TERRAIN
MARK 3 BLUE

Same as D9 2.2 and both V6 estates. All the other estates use different springs (5102 E4), apart from the 1.8 lpg :?

Saloons are all different I'm afraid.

Hold on, 147 quid a pair? :x
