Hi.

Talking about SU, I gave them a call today. The HS6s on my GT blow all their
damping oil out of the chambers when the car is revved up a lot-perhaps your
cars do the same. The man said there were two possible explanations...

1. Overfilling
2. Wear on the outside of the damper. This allows oil, which should stay
below the damper, to go past and out of the vent hole. Suggested checking
for wear and scoring, which I'll do tomorrow.

Cheers,

Dave H.
