My Jazz has just passed it first MOT. This car has done only 24k miles and has a full Honda service record from new. The MOT cert. came with the following advisory:
1: slight oil misting on shock absorber rear off side.
2: slight oil misting on shock absorber rear near side.
I can only assume that this is as a result of a small hole/crack/ failure in the seals. As the car is still under Honda warrenty I asked if this was covered by the Honda warrenty. I was told no as the shockers hadn't failed and could last many thousand of miles before failure.
As I see it the seals have failed and we are only talking about the degree of failure.
Do you folks think it is worth persuing for a warrenty claim?
The MOT was carried out by the Honda Main Dealer.
