I'll bet the view is amazing, gio89kid! My friends that visit San Diego always spend their time at OB, La Jolla, Mission Beach, etc., so I have the misconception that SoCal is a place where you could roll a skateboard EVERYWHERE without hitting so much as a pebble. But Cali does have beauty beyond the beaches and I hope to visit one day.

But to keep on the subject, it's my understanding KYB stands firmly behind their products. Your shocks should not leak like that, especially after one year. I'm betting they take care of you.

Amazon should have everything documented. I'm getting an oil change now and having them check the shocks as complimentary service, because I also noticed just now that when I turn the car all the way right the spring Ching Ching Chings.
So I guess strut plate is messed up to???

I don't know, but everything was new from KYB so hopefully the dealer can give me more information.

Well dealer was no help, but I got a look at 3/4 shocks when it was up on a lift at the tire shop and the rest look good and not leaking, so probably just one faulty one.

As far as the spring thing, I still have to check that for sure.

I do shock warranty investigations for a non-GM OEM. You have a leaker there. and they probably already know about it. Leaks are fairly common, and only get worse, never better.

That company is normally under 1%, but they have their issues. Not exactly 6-sigma. Sorry. They should back it up. PM me if you have problems. I am busy, but I do have contacts there in Quality.
