Haven't had much time & money spend on the car. Finally, I took the car to a mechanic yesterday. He reckons it's the strut itself and denied to inspect it. Didn't agree but couldn't disagree with it either. So I might get 'another' rear strut and get it replaced but before doing so I just wanna find out few things

1. I kinda don't understand the current situation. If it's leaking strut. Doesn't it stay LOW all the time ? It's going 3 different stages so randomly ...


one day it's like this

one day it's like that (super low!)

one day it goes like that !!! (super high)

but I'd say 50% of the time it stays LOW... I mean, extremely low..

I don't get it... can a faulty suspension computer cause this ? But can't think it's justcomputer. When it goes low, I also hear "shhhhhhhh" sound from rear wheel (rear right)

The mechanic also mentioned that it might be the strut valve half way broken so it open/close properly sometime and sometime it doesn't. Is this possible scenario ?

I just want to get some idea before I make any move (especially stupid one :-))
