Hey folks-
I was headed out to the autocross this morning, and figured I'd stiffen up my frontend a little and set my AGXs to 2 in the front (I usually keep them at 1 for normal driving). Alas, it seems that the adjustment screw on my driver's side shock is stripped/melted.... no matter what I did the thing won't turn, although it pushes down.
This is a continuing symptom after I tried to adjust the shocks after runnign the car fairly hard on a hot day, and the plastic seemed really soft when I tried to adjust.. Now, it's just like putty and I can't get it to do anything.
Has anyone else had this problem, and is there any other way to adjust the shock, or better yet - fix it?
