I bought a set of KW1s off a forum member (that had done about 20k) and fitted them, they have been on the car for about month & half but when i took car in today to get new disks all round & NQBBK fitted :evilgrin: the mechanic noticed that 1 of the rear shocks was leaking :fighting:
Do they have any kind of warranty I could possibly claim on? or can I order new rear shocks from KW, or can i just get some uprated shocks and put them on instead?
On a positive side, the NQBBKs look the dogs :drool: and I can't wait to get them bedded in :innocent: all i need now is some nice 19" alloys to show them off :signLOL:
Will get some pics up tomorrow when its light :jumpmove:

Usually only come with a 12 month warranty fella. You may be able to contact them and see what they can do for you

The rear shocks are available separately from KW as well :happy2:

Most KW rear shocks leak slightly. KW will tell you its normal and its just a mist of oil vapour over time that looks like a leak. If they are properly leaking then oil will be all down the shock body.
Or it had just been raining outside and it was water. :grin:
