From: "Mungo "Two Sheds" Toadfoot" on 8 Mar 2010 15:20 Why are they not freely available? I'm looking for a Terrano suspension part and it's proving very difficult. Despite knowing the name of the part, and having a diagram of it from a workshop manual, the main dealer is still coming up with the wrong part. Admittedly contact has so far been by phone and email but being able to quote a part number would help enormously! Si

Try a Ford dealer - the Terrano II (I'm presuming it's not a grey import) was the same Spanish-built thingummy as the Ford Maverick.

Where? Not that I don't believe you, it just might come in handy. K11 Micra, Mazda 323F, Megane Scenic, Skoda Felicia & Fabia, for example. Any of those got an explosion of parts & associated part numbers anywhere? >> I'm looking for a Terrano suspension part and it's proving very >> difficult.

It cost about �5 inc. Also Fiatforums.com run a sort of co-operative version of the same thing. I'd try to find the on-line forums for the various models and/or try ebay. Another Dave |
