well did u chk and see if the spring ends are set in the strut perches correctly.
Would body flew have affected the car height over time?

i just finished taking out my rear struts, and on the left strut (the side that is lower) there is a grayish dried up liquid on it, and when i put the left strut next to right strut the left strut is much easier to push down than the right

blown strut, did someone use an impact to tighten down the strut when the springs were installed, it might have damaged the seal then too, or just milage.

that happened on my old accord too. i had stock struts and eibach sportlines. it went away for the most part when i replaced the struts. it was due to struts being more dead then others and such. but it was never perfect.
