on the fronts it is a hexagonal like nut on top of the strut, you should have an adjuster to put on these? and on the rears there's nob at the bottom of the strut that you can turn by hand. clockwise=harder, anticlcokwise=softer

Are the knobs on the rear strut locked in position though? Sure mine have a grub screw in them to lock it in place.

I tried turning mine and they're solid. Looks like there is a screw in mine. Will have to take a better look.

yours may have seized as its not uncommon? im sure the screw turns with the nob, its just so you can use a long screwdriver to make them easier to turn not to lock them in position

Mine are new and have been on the car for 200 miles so I doubt they're seized.
When I say grub screw I don't mean the slot in the centre of the knob to aid turning.
On the side of the knob mine has like a allen style grub screw.
