Hi All,

Fitted a set of bilstein b14 coilovers last week and whilst adjusting the height today I noticed some play already in the n/s damper. This is what led me to replace the konis previously fitted although the play was a lot worse.

Question is......is a bit of play considered normal/acceptable or do I need to contact bilstein already??
