Hey guys,

My One year old 1.2 pop which done about 16,000kms, seem to develop a leak on one of the rear shocks. (I have the photos).

Car obviously still under warranty but I'm in two minds of whether getting the dealer to fix/replace it under warranty with another crap oem ones or either get myself better shocks suited to this car to match with stock springs?

Can you please look at the photos and advice me what best to do? Thanks

I'm in Australia for your info.

By the way car seems to drive fine...

But I'm willing to pay because I drive on rough crappy roads here. You reckon I should just get Bilsteins and be done with it?

I plan to keep this car for at least 8 years...

yeah but why pay at least 500 euros now when you can do it at least 1 year later. I mean i would just make fiat pay for it, let them get out of pocket a bit for making such rubbish parts = ) chances are your next shocks should last at least 1-2 more years.

In 2 years time, change all the suspension in the car get a whole bilstein kit. thats what i did spent about 750 euros and got a set of bilstein b14's and have never looked back.
