I absolutely love this Peter

Do not ever spray anything to hood strut - as I did. I put vaseline to thin part. Now It not function anymore as it should. Maybe some sealing failed? Had buy new one for 50euro.

Maybe that vaseline got past the seal and mixed with oil. Or is it even oil in there or is it gas strut. Dont know. But nobody ever should lube shock stanchions
