I think my passenger-side rear shock has given up, or is giving up, as its started to scrub pretty bad going over bumps or down an un-even road. I've set the damping level to the hardest setting, but still no joy, its a Spax RSX kit, which was fitted only in January...
Does anyone know if the warranty will cover this? or will it be classed as general wear & tear

Will be just breaking in mate, corsa's tend to rub mostly on one side at the rear anyhow. Cant send it back because youre alloys scrubbing? Does it actually sit lower than before on the corner it rubs? You cant fit aftermarket bumpstops to the spax rears so it cant be that! My 60mm drop spax are now more like 70-75mm drop after two years and 25,000 miles!
