Suspension How long before new shocks lose that "new" feeling?
How long before new shocks lose that "new" feeling?
I put a set of Koni FSD's on my MCS around 6000 miles ago. Maybe it's all in my head, but the ride doesn't feel as nice as it did as when they were new. How long should shocks last? I'm assuming 40,000 miles or more...,right ?
Maybe I have just gotten used to the new shocks and it's all in my head. The ride just feels rougher than when I first installed them.

I have 66,000 on my 2003 stock shocks and I'm surprised how well they're holding up.
The car is a March 2003 build, which is a couple months before they "softened" the
oem shocks, so that may have something to do with it.
