    Airbags

    Contitech or Dunlop, apart from the price, is there any measurable difference?
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I have a preference for the Dunlop.
    My experience with 6 from 6 (3x sets) Contitech bags leaking at the retainer ring will keep me from ever bothering with them.
    I must state the contitrch were from Arnott in the US.
    While they did their best to sort the issue (hence 3 sets)
    They failed on every attempt.

    New Dunlop and no worries.

    What sort of money does a new set run? I still have the factory set from 2000.

    Replaced original Contitech (one was leaking)at about 8 years with Dunlops of which one started leaking after 4 years and both showed significant surface cracking.
    Put another set of Conti's in ex UK.
