Strut trouble

Noticed a nasty problem at the front, suspension bottomed out too easely. Even quite small obstacles on the road resulted a bang in the shocks. That was strange because I had assembled the shorter versions of Bilsteins, the Sprints together with the H&R lowering springs. This combination should not bottom out.

Had to dismantle the McPhersons to see what's the problem. To my surprise the number in shock was a P30-3060, the number for Sport. Case closed. I should have been more sharp when assembling and not just trust the seller. Frustrating, but I don't think he mislead me on purpose. For the record, the number for Sprint is  P30-3059.

Put back the original springs and the bottoming problem was gone. Top mounts was put to a non-PAS position.

The track rod ends were loose, changed them both end.
