Pss9 Owners....

I was about to alter my suspension settings, when I removed the blue cap for the front suspension, I noticed that both the left and right are weeping red oil. Is this normal for a Bilstein ?

PN- , Is there a lot of leakage ? I would contact the company you bought your kit from and ask them to check if they have a set in stock to look at. You should have your shock warrantied by them if there is a problem.

The RUF, FVD, Techart systems are very good kits and I have never seen or heard of a leakage problem. Could be a bad valve in the shock.

Strut bar is not that expensive and I hear any chassis stiffenening is worth it...

Hey Theo,

Where are you at now? I heard you no longer work at FVD?

I raised my car for an oil change and didn't notice any leaking from the shock body. Still nice and silver ...

I would definetly have it checked out...

Where's Theo?

Hey buddy, I've been pluggin' the FVD setup that you generously provided me with in my hour of need after the H&R fiasco. I was embarrassed to have someone correct my plug by stating you were no longer at FVD. PM me your recent whereabouts, too please.
