ABC POWER FOR THE WORLD!

But yes. On a 215 all of the struts are ABC

******** ! both rears on the 215 are leaking , which i find odd but non the less , its there to see , its a light misting and explains why i have to top up the fluid every 2 months or so

Check it’s not just the unions weeping. Fingers crossed for you.

I truly hope that the issue pal , do I need to drop the shock down to get to the union ??

yeah craig , that's 600 quid I'm not willing to put into it after having to do 2 new keys so will sell it on

How do i get to the strut connector on the rear of a 215 , anyone ?? Ive stripped the back out but cant see anything, is it a wheel arch liner out ??

 

[Flyinspanner]

I was talking about the unions on the valve block, passenger side just forward of rear wheel, it is under an undertray.

worth checking connectors but I didn’t ever look at the struts.

ok pal , I will investigate
