I just found out that my suspension is leaking oil, on the front driver side so will need to have it replaced.

Currently using Bilstein sport shocks and H&R springs. I have heard good things about Koni FSD and keen to install them but i hva hesitation on the ride height if i was to install FSD. I like having my ride height quite low and do not want to increase ride height when I replace suspension.

Does anyone know if there is a difference in ride height from my current set up to koni & h&r?


Thanks!

FWIW, your Bilstein shocks should be covered by warranty.

Are your Bilstein shocks leaking? If so, I'd call them (Bilstein) and see what they can do. I believe their warranty covers a leak, unless there is absolutely an obvious mishandling of the shock. Good luck

Oh really?? In that case, I will check with the distributor here in Hong Kong and see what their warranty coverage is!

Thanks guys!
