I'm pretty sure the info is here but I have been unsuccessful in my search! I Have an air leak from the valve on the top of the strut. I have 2 questions.
1 How do you remove the valve. When I try to remove the 12mm air line connection the whole valve turns! I don't have room to try grip the valve. I have a feeling that I can simply grip and pull up popping the whole valve from the housing.
2 Is there an O Ring in there that leaks and if so where is the best place to buy a replacement.
Thanks

There is an O ring on the bottom of that valve. If the tightness of that valve is compromised according to Arnott the strut needs to be replaced.Originally Posted by heligarret
