Hello All:
While my mechanic was fixing a flat on my front right, I tried to tighten the lower height sensor nut and I broke the bolt. The whole bolt is made of plastic (if i knew!!). While I'll attempt this weekend a quick fix by drilling/tapping through the axis of what is left of the lower plastic bolt and using a metal screw to hold the sensor in place for a while, I am asking if you know a place where I can order a new front height sensor. The stealership charges $250 in Vegas just for the part and $260 for installing it.
Also any advice on replacing the height sensor?
I appreciate your help and advice on this. For some reason doing a search on this forum and on the Mark VIII message board did not yield any useful results.
Thanks,
Ovy
