I fixed the link....it should work now if anyone wants to see what's involved to do the Koni inserts.
I jacked up the car last night and looked around and everything feels tight (to my not so knowledgable brain)..... the bolt is in the bottom. i have to call the shop, but the strut assembly apppears to be newer than my otheres (much cleaner) so i think they actually replaced it. Not sure why the extra large washer is on there though, as all the others just have one of those star washers or whatever the ones with all the little teeth are called. So, i'm basically getting a "empty" thunk going over even the smallest bump. With everything that i can see tight, i'm guessing the strut is dead. I guess the only way to tell this is to take the strut out, pull on it to see if you get resistance, and then change the stiffness knob to more stiff and i should be able to feel more resistance. If anyone can help me do that, let me know! Or if anyone has another strut assembly they don't need, please let me know. This seems like something i could do in my driveway if i had a spring compressor?
