Shock absorber rebuild/repair?
Discussion
Hello all,
I have a Gallardo with lifting gear but it has a small fault as the front left damper is leaking slightly. Years ago a specialist had this rebuilt for me but it started leaking again. Does anyone know where I might get this done?
My mechanic said he has never heard of it but these dampers are ridiculously priced.
Thanks.

Is the leak coming from the hose or from the damper rod? If it is the hose, i.e. the join of the hose to the damper, then the fix is just replacing an o-ring which is easily nicked when installing. If it is in fact the damper rod, then there is a possibility it can be refurbished. I have used Black Art Designs in Essex before. Alternatively (if the damper is a Koni) there are service and repair links on their website.
