from the right front over dips/bumps. They test drove &amp; it made the same clunk.

from a local dealer. But what they put in the service report "Invoice" makes me lol. I quote this "Front shock is leaking and is normal - checked all bulletins - The shock is not leaking ENOUGH to replace at this time".

I will scan later and post it up for everyones viewing pleasure

AoA that says sweating shocks are normal, so have not replace mine yet. Although the car has no clunking and they claim they pressure checked it. I will be asking to them to pressure check it again at 25K this summer.

The clunking just happened today for the first time. It's is very unfortunate they passed on addressing a obvious issue. Plus they admitted it was leaking and it's normal. Sweating or not, my front right does not rebound like it should, plus it now make noise.

I call BS, there's no way the leaking on his DRC is normal, I've seen it in person and its all the way down the shock...not to mention they state "it's leaking"

always reinstall it when I get ready to sell the car, then take it to the dealer and tell them that I think my DRC is broken. That way you'll be able to get it charged back up for free.

Otherwise, you'll have to pay the dealer to switch out the suspension as the car can't be sitting on a DRC system that isn't charged up.
