Calling all Koni/GC users... (or anyone with Koni Yellows "smarts")

Just saw this thread. Both of my fronts are leaking also. Have been for some time. Haven't noticed any real reduction of damping, however. I did blow a strut, right after I had the conversion done, however, when I hit a huge pot-hole. I could really notice that it had no damping whatsoever. Car was a real handful. recently, I have begun to notice at the track a little bit of lurching on transitions. Could be they are beginning to give up the ghost.

Interesting......I havn't had any leaking problems yet with mine. I suppose they may be of an older batch (i got them when porter was still doing his pakage deal) They have been on full stiff since i got them. I ran them pretty low for about 2 weeks and realized the ride sucked so i moved them up about 1/2" and it was perfect and handled alot better to.

I even had an incident where i hit a curb sideways and it stuffed the adjuster nipple up through the hood, thought for sure it was gonna start leaking after that but still no problems and that was about 2 years ago.

It alos gets auto-x and driven hard on the street so im not really sure whats going on.

Maybe they cut back on quality of the seals to save 1 cent on every strut made.

I've got the Koni paperwork in an e-mail if anyone needs it. It describes your options for replacement.
