Hi. Looking for a bit of advice... Have set about replacing the front coil springs on my 2006 Berlingo (actually Peugeot Partner) MPV - when I check out replacement springs online (using the vehicle reg) I am generally getting two options - for vehicles with/without A/C... my vehicle has A/C but the existing springs are different to the image for the A/C version and identical to the non-A/C replacements..! How important is it that I use the right ones - are they interchangeable..? Thanks. Guy

The springs differ in stiffness depending on the weight of the vehicle, the engine type, Air con, panoramic roof will all play a part in the overall weight of the vehicle.
I was advised by the technical department at KYB to use their RA1330 springs on the front of my car, it has AC & the panoramic roof.
You can find the KYB spring catalogue at the link below.

KYB are good quality springs, you will find them listed on ebay for a good price.
