 Volkswagen Golf IV - 02 1.9 Changing front shock absorbers - Alanovich
I just got our Golf back from its MoT, and contrary to what I said elsewhere, there is one advisory for a front shock absorber, which is said to be suffering a "slight misting" of oil.

So, I'm going to need to change the front pair before too long, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience of doing this on a Mark 4 Golf as a DIY job? Is it fairly easy, or would I be better off just getting a a garage to do it?

Cheers for any thoughts.
