Bilstein Shocks Clunking After 10000km!?!?

[dpgx5]

I had the same issue... Drivers side, leaking... never got the chance to replace as they want me to send back strut and then send out replacement..

Im planning on putting the stock sport struts back on.

Let us know your outcome.

Really? I've heard of others who have had warranty replacements sent out ahead of time; pretty sure they had to give a credit card number to buy the replacement, but the money was refunded when the defective shock was received.

I am trying to talk to Bilstein US about having them cover the entire replacement.
I don't think it's reasonable for me to cover the cost of an alignment due to a faulty shock after only 10000km. Any support from forum members would be greatly appreciated.
I posted on the BilsteinUS Facebook page wall to try and get some attention.
