So I know this is a pretty rediculous question, but I am not sure where/how to adjust my AGXs, since they came on the car when I bought it. Right now they are too stiff, I want to soften them up a little bit. I think there is a screw to turn, but I don't know if the screw is down on the shaft of the strut, in the engine bay where the 1/2/3/4 is on the top of the strut, or what.
 
:tease: yugotdonkey....You answered yourself at the end. The top where it says 1/2/3/4 IS the adjustment. 1 is softer, 4 is harder
 
Make sure you push down, then turn, then allow the adjustment screw to come back up. This is the way the manual says to adjust the stiffness.

I'll take a look at the top tomorrow. I thought the top was just the nut that holds the strut in, tried turning that but it didnt move. I didn't see a screw, but I'll look again since its there ROFL
 
you'll need a very small flat head screw driver.
pop up your hood and look at the top of the strut.
on top you'll see the four different colors (white, yellow, green, red).
in middle of that you'll see a black round thing with a lil white dot on one side.
whatever color that white dot is next to thats the current setting on your struts.
in order to change the setting take the small screwdriver (tweaker) and push down on that then turn to your desired setting.
 
Pix of AGX front below:

I take it your asking about the front struts. In the black area that is in the center of the White, Green, Red, Yellow, there is a slot for a small, 1/8" or so screwdriver. There is a white dot on that black center part that you can see in the pix. The dot lines up with a colored area and indicates the position. As said before 1 being softest and 4 being hardest.

Due to those numbers are disappear on my AGX struts. I need to know does White=1? Yellow=2? Green=3? and Red=4? Does anyone confirm these numbers and colors on AGX struts?

Thanks in advance.
