View Full Version : Broken shock, suggestions?

Looks like I have a broken left-rear shock. I heard a pop from the rear of the car when going through a gutter yesterday and this morning I have a little puddle of oil on the garage floor, right beneath the shock. I jacked the car up and pulled the wheel to get a better look. With the rubber boot off I can see where the oil is running the length of the shaft and down all over the bottom mount.

I'm pretty sure shocks aren't covered under warranty, are they? I'd like to have both rear shocks replaced at the same time, so either way I'm sure I'm going to have to pay for at least one of them. Anybody know about how much these Tokiko shocks cost? Should I consider replacing all four with something else?

Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

I know shocks are covered under the 3/36 basic warranty. Do not know about an Extended Warranty.

Yep, just take it in, they'll replace it. The shocks aren't expensive to replace, so just have em do the other one while they're at it...
