Dear Forum,
I seek knowledge- and experience based input: As a consequence of sandblasting mishap, we have replaced both front shocks on our VDJ200 w AHC. Vehicle mileage is 225k km, front shocks are now 12k km. On first ride w new front shocks I immediately noticed a harsher ride and an unbalance between front and rear. Rear feels a lot softer, maybe like it used to be. Before the change all three settings were usable. After the change Soft is firmer than Sport used to be. There is no point at all in using normal and Sport. It feels like anti dive is constantly active. Initially I hoped the feel would change as the shocks break in, but so far not. The workshop is quite good, but do not see many 200's pr year. They will look at the car again, fullt open that they will have to learn from this.
Has anyone input to this situation?
-A
