Have an N Reg Corsa which has been fitted with Coil Overs,

I personally think the car is too low an would like to raise it up just a touch due to stupid speedbumps where I live,

Is raising coil overs an easy job or is it worth speaking to a garage

HELP PLEASE

jack car up

take wheels off

use the c spanner to adjust as you like

or jus take each coilover off and adjust them

(it always help to support the hub with a jack axle stand etc then all the weight isnt on the strut)

btw i know this might not be the right way but its just the method i have used in the past to do mine

ALSO MAKE SURE EACH ONE IS ADJUSTED THE SAME lol

dont need to take shock off, or even wheel, just make sure they are the same height either side, measure from a fixed point that will not move to the spring seat
