Does ur front Suspension leaks...or accumulates some grease on top (on the adjuster itself)
cause i can see some build up of some lil grease on top of it
is that normal?


let me know!

blackeg

this may sound stupid, but is it just grease and **** from your engine bay in general, or is it noticeably only on the strut top? for the strut to be goin bad i would look for grease and fluid on the outside of the strut rod that may or may not be beneath a dust cover

no mine doesnt have no crap on it. neither do the shocks itself.i would also like to know what causes this just for the future in case it happens to me.

i have no probs, but mine are still fairly new, like 2 months. how long have you had yours?

not normal..at least not on mine. I would think any fliud leaking from a shock is not a good thing you might wanna use that warranty.

nope, not normal... i've had mine for over a year now and i've never had any leaks on teh front or the rear. better check to make sure if the grease is coming from your motor or else your agxs might be starting to blow.

i just got this installed like 2 months ago. Is it because i "slammed" it so much?
The grease is only a little bit( as in ) ..i can only see a lil bit of wetness on top of it! No leaks or anything coming out of my engine.

PearlWhiteAccord

I have the same leak just 2 wks after intallation...mine is lowered on h&r sports, but i hit a big pothole going around 35+ mph...i think that was the cause...
i think it is slowly dying...not really sure because i pushed down on the car to test the bounce back...it seems ok tho...

WARRANTY that shiat!

If you slammed your car (more than a 1.75" drop) good luck getting a warranty claim to go through with them. I was told that 1.75" was pretty much the limit at which they will cover any kind of warranty claims. Anything lower than that and you're on your own.
And yes, they CAN tell how low a sock has been.

DJ_CARY

how can they tell?
I dropped my car like 4.5 - 5"
If i told them that i just dropped it @ 1.75" would t hey take it though?

Holy **** that is slammmmmed. Yeah tho I'm not sure how they would tell how low it was. I would just warranty if they say its cause you lowered it too much, exactly just say no... no i didnt.

Frozen E

They can tell. I talked to the guys at coximports.com. They explained it to me when I had a set. That was about 4 years ago. I don't remember, but I think you're screwed.

gezer

ya you are screwd....iam sure they have a way to tell or else they would be handing warrantys out all day. You guys should have read up before buying these if you wanted to drop your car lower then 1.5 because the shocks will go eventually

I have had mine for about 6 months now and no problems like that. I just cant stand driving around on anything but 4.
