 It's time draw on the collective experience of members. I've just had a rear height sensor, connecting rod and bracket replaced at my local dealership. The car car now sits nice and level and rides nicely on smooth roads, but when I get onto country roads, (plentiful in this region), the ride is very hard and it pitches from side to side. I suspect the rear comfort spheres but would like the pressures checking and the spheres recharged if necessary.
Does anybody know of a specialist that could carry this out, prferably in North East England or the Scottish Borders. I know Westroen do earlier models but I don't know if they still exist and if they do the C6.

Thanks,

Pete.

 Pete, I hate to be a harbinger of doom, but both my Sixes have always done that little side-to-side “jiggle”; I believe that it’s a trait. I’d be interested in knowing if you get anywhere with having the comfort spheres tested and/or replaced.

 Hi Steve, I must admit I'm a bit suspicious myself. My wife insists it's a recent development but I'm not so sure. I had my previous two C6s when we lived in the Manchester area, although we did travel extensively, but now we are in rural Northumberland it seems more pronounced. I tried to demonstrate that it rides quite well on the A1 but I have to admit it does feel the bumps and changes in road surface, which I'm sure it didn't do before.
I had a reply from Westroen to say that the C6 spheres are sealed for life and cannot be charged. I guess I'll just keep looking.

Cheers,

Pete

 Hello Pete,

I though Pleiades were doing that service? See posts in this forum from happy customers.

Best regards,

Phil C.
