At least now I know the OEM front shock price is 1800 AUD each😂. I also just ordered a set of KW V4 which should arrive around March, hopefully no more leaking with the coilover😂.
Thats interesting--- my W212 E63 wagon had a shock leak and it was the first one back in 2012 and they just replaced it. I think your dealer should not have to send a shock back but I dont know what their intent is.

Im glad you have a remedy.
