ABC problems
Hi there, I have readout from a garage and it says : "Right front suspension strut moves although locking valve is closed", on three out of four shocks, can anyone tell me what is wrong. The mechanic think I need the shocks replaced.

Valve blocks, there is DTB regarding this as well. Reseal them and clean it out real good
