i have an s13 with the tein type flex coilovers. the less expensive model. anways i am having a problem with the stiffness adjustment . it seems that i have damaged the little knobs on top. basically it seems as if there is too much adjustment. can somebody redirect me to taking care of this problem

also they don't seem to be leaking, just the dampening adjustability is way out of sync.. ..

I have the same coils. The flex are NOT their cheaper model. Not sure what your issue is based on your post. I have about 30 clicks from full soft to full stiff. It seems like a lot which could be what is concerning you with yours, but its normal

by cheaper. i meant cheaper in the flex design category. i know there are cheaper models but mine isn't the more expensive flex mono .
today while i was working on my car i checked out the coilovers momentarily and noticed about 20 clicks on the driver side and 25 on the passenger fronts. that is where i know it cannot be normal. also it doesn't feel right between certain clicks. i never put added force on it besides what would be considered normal.

anybody have any feedback on getting this fixed. ....
oh and next time i drive the car out i will adjust the stiffness/ softness settings to see if i can feel the difference. i dont think i do. but feedback is greatly appreciated. thanks
