Very useful to know, Darren :happy2: 8) :happy2:
I remember back in early 2006 (when you could get a bag of sweets for sixpence) writing that the KoniFSD's didn't get rid of the bumps but that they softened their edges.
Although mine failed after about 50k miles and Koni gave me back my money, I would buy them again (the current later version) unless I wanted the more hardcore coilovers (which I am extremely happy with).

^^ They do definitely soften the bumps. I find them quite unpredictable though. Sometimes I'll see something like a slightly raised manhole cover and think" this should be ok" :smiley: only to be treated to a jarring bump. :surprised: Then other times I'll catch sight of a pothole quite late, so brace myself for the impact :scared: and the Konis damp them out with no drama. :smiley:

Hi mortygttdi, thanks for the tip. Can you explain in a bit more details which bolt you mention - so I can get it checked out straight away.
I don't seem to recollect the guys having to unbolt the ARBs...in any case i will get them examined, plus what is the correct torque/tightening setting for the bolt?

Mojo where the yellow circles are this is the tie rod and one side goes onto the strut and the other like in the picture goes to the anti roll bar circled in red I think they need to be torqued upto 70nm but not positive.
Darren
