Thank you, Geoff.
The shock absorbers supplied for the 406 are actually very simple to adjust. On some models there is a rubber bumper inside the dust shield that has to be removed for adjustment and then re-fitted. Some also have a plastic washer.
For the type I have just bought it is a simple matter of fully compressing and turning slightly until the mechanism engages. Then rotate top relative to bottom. Clockwise stiffens. There are two turns of adjustment.
Adjustment has to be made off the car, or at least with the bottom mount disconnected.
I will start with the softest setting as recommended and see how I get on.
