My car is in the shop for an alignment and I'm getting any parts replaced that are seized and not workable.
While in the shop, I was going down the path of a corner balance. However, it turns out the front right coilover has seized completely. They removed both coilovers and were able to get the drivers side coilover loose, but not the passenger side.
These BC Racing coilovers have been on my car for less than 24 months. Have only experienced 2 winters and both of those were very mild.
The shop made mention that the coating is not the greatest on BC and they see this all the time.
Just posting for others to keep in mind if you live in winter areas with snow/salt. Do as much PM work as you can every spring/summer if you want to keep them moving. Guy said some people even go as far as removing their coilovers for every winter if it's a car they DD and they also AutoX.
