Had 2 new front dampers replaced under warranty in December they picked it up on first MOT at 47000miles .Also 2 rear ones for knocking noise, there ok still .
Now 3 months later and 1500 miles one front has badly started leaking again .
Not impressed with the quality of these !
Any one else had issues ?

Do you see them leaking by looking at the body of the damper or do you see the effects on that wheel?

Also, I grew up in Manchester. Peterborough is a beautiful area... sorry for your recent snow
