Default Having a Problem with KYB AGX. Can't change the ride setting!!! Help!

Alright, so my car was a full blown race car before, and the previous owner had the shocks set on 4 all around. (EG hatch)

On the rear passenger side, the little thing that you use the flathead screwdriver on won't turn. Does anyone know any tricks to help it move?

I'd like to turn them all down to 1 because frankly, I'm sick of bouncing around like a moron and having the ride quality of a charriot with wooden wheels.


Thanks so much!

Pushing down on the strut itself or just pushing down with the screwdriver?

Because just pushing down with the screwdriver does not work at all.

^^^ What he said. I have kyb agxs on by 99 coupe ex and to adjust on the front you just pop the hood and use the supplied small flat head screw driver to push in the small button on the top of the strut shaft. The small button with a indented line in it (for the adjustment screw driver) should push in some and then just turn it to the desired setting. Mine has 1 to 4 on the front struts. The rear is just turn the *** from the back of the car by getting under the rear bumper. The rear on mine has 8 settings.
