my question ,if i may ask , how can i be sure that my SLS can not be restored , also what are the benefits of the "regular suspension system" , and how can i know the costs of either fixing the sls or changing it ,what are the best brands of struts ,shock absorber etc to install in my car ,keeping in mind i dont drive it aggressively.
would like to add another point ,he offered to install sachs absorbers ,but told me to ask at other places how much will it cost ,before he do so.
thank you all

Where do you live?
If people knew this, they might be able to point you to a competent, reasonably-priced mechanic.
