I've just joined so hi to all!
I have just replaced the rear bearing hubs on my much loved 2001 Doblo 1.9d JLX, whilst doing so I noticed that the suspension end-stop buffers were rotted, with the last inch or so completely gone, so I replaced with new ones. On driving all seemed fine, maybe a bit firmer ride wise. I checked and noticed that the new buffers are now just touching the leaf springs, would anyone know if this is actually ok, or if it indicates that the shocks or leaf springs need attention? The car has done about 70k. Cheers!
