OEM shocks...is that normal?

[Italian_Job]

Got my Renualt shocks delivered today
2 front 172 cup and 2 rear 182 cup

is it normal that the front shocks dont go back up once pushed down? the rear does, a lot!

Actually the fronts are sitting in pushed down position, that's it and one feels quite softer than the other, no leaks same part number though

help!

yes, normal. if you pull them out, they will retract quite quickly

they dont move at all, they stay in whatever position are placed :dapprove:
and what about one side being a bit softer? has it got to do with the well know Renault manufacturing tolerance?
