Brake fluid has a definite smell... and you would see the leak when you press on the brakes. That is really ****ty dude, you should be able to send them out for revalving/rebuilidng or replacement for the lifetime warranty... I don't remember what brand they are.

Ugh, I feel for ya, I can't imagine the disappointment. At the same time I can't figure out which one it is, it could easily be both.

They are kyb agx's. warranty wont cover it.

It has to be blown b/c the spot doesn't really smell. It is a very mild oil smell that just smells like car.

story:
So since my drive home my car has been sitting since the suspension was done until yesterday in which I adjusted the coils, and drove about 2 miles total to go to the gas station. I crossed the train tracks going maybe 15 mph and I heard a loud BAM on the front drivers side and was like WTF. Though I popped my tire

Got home didnt see anything. Drove my moms car and as I was leaving I saw a small puddle under my car....this is what I found..




Do you guys know if Sears requires an appointment for alignment and i hear they have a 1 year warranty on alignment work? Maybe I can get an alignment tomorrow, order a new strut, get it installed, and then have sears fix the alignment?

this is the worst week ever
