Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and am excited to learn more about our vehicles. I live in Badin. N.C. (near Charlotte)and we have 2 Jaguars. The wife drives a 2021 F-Pa e R Dynamic S. It's Black with Red interior. My car is a 2015 F-Type R. It is Ultimate Black Metallic and has Black and Red interior. It came with the Black Pack, Climate Pack and the leather Pack.

I have recently noticed a knocking/ a going house from the front end when going over bumps. I had it looked at today and was told that the front struts needed to be replaced. I have a couple of questions I would like to get some information about.....
# 1. Do I have to replace the whole Strut Assembly or can I just replace the top part where the rubber is?
# 2. Where is the best place in or near North Carolina to get parts for our cars?

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions you may have. They will be greatly appreciated.
