Ohlins coilovers dust shield oops? w/ spring question
Hi Everyone,
So I have a problem with my passenger rear side of my car where if I hit a bump hard - or if anyone is in the car with me - it wants to bottom out. I took the wheel off today to look around and saw this. I'm assuming this is not good? Any idea if I can fix it? I tried simply pulling it down but that isn't going to work. Also can anyone tell what springs are on my car? I want to say they said 120 stamped on them somewhere but I'd have to check again, didn't write it down.

Maybe try using a heat gun to warm up the plastic and then pulling it down?

I just wonder if it's stuck on something in the shock and causing it to not function correctly? I can't remember if I tried to feel up in there to see if there's a ridge or something which the rubber might be caught on. I just know it did not want to move down by itself.

Looks like the HPA swift setup to me based on the height adjuster and blue spring. IIRC, my 672 lb/in swift springs were stamped 120.
