Ride height calibration was done after the strut replacement right?

Thanks for the reply I did the struts and my buddy did some reset with his obd2 tablet from his shop I am going to soap test the block and pump but I really don't think its a leak also the passenger rear makes a thumping noise when I hit bumps everything seams tight didn't see anything when I did the struts thanks

Yeah that's not the same. Have the car ride height calibrated, by an actual shop, on an alignment rack properly.

Will do but before I do any advice on the thump in rear and front a bit just on passenger side I want to correct and replace what is needed before I get a alignment thanks for your input

Gotta see what's worn or what you left loose, impossible to guess at over the internet.
