So I have these airfilled rear shocks and it got artic around here last night and today, and the rear left shock goes CRUNCH every time I (slowly) maneuver my way over the lunar pavement we have in this cityîŸ~p appened when I picked up my car in January after it had been sitting in the deepfreeze without moving for two weeks. I thought the shock must have deflated so I put a little air in it and when I checked the pressure in the shock I blew the stick for the gauge straight out and about 10 feet behind me. I wish I'd been watching me do this because the whole scene was straight out of Buster Keaton. See, the shocks take a max of 120 psi and I accidentally picked up my 100 psi gauge... So the pressure was fine. And when the temp warmed up, the crunchy noise stopped. Comments anyone? -Mike 72 Sqbk Booklyn ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
