Re: please help!!!
Hello Taffy,
The difference between the 17mm and 20mm might be due to differing diameter strut rod fitted to the V6 (and possibly Activa).
The high pressure hydraulic feed into the strut top, visible in the photo, looks like the larger diameter which means it is fitted to Hydractive models.
Hope that helps, but I'm sure someone will correct the info if I'm wrong.

Re: please help!!!
ok thanks that would make sence! hence v6 activias are s1 and s2....well done mate
right have just been down engineers with my s1 nsf top...measured to thread and pitch and non hydra is m8 x 1.5..took the pipe off my strut and measured it its hydra and the thread is m16 x 1.5...also measured the length,diameter of the pipe end...around the olive so by morrow he will have it sorted..but im a little worried thinking about it cause i checked the nut size on top of my strut and its 27mm...i HOPE its not a reflection of the coller size

Nope, only the V6 has the big top hole and they're utterly unique to the V6...taffy wrote:can anyone support the Activa bein 20mm top coller?
