My left strut is leaking
I went to get my car serviced and in the process they found out they one of my struts is leaking and the other one is getting there. I asked them to replace both my struts but they dint have one of 'em.
Haven't had a chance to go back yet - how bad is it riding on a leaking strut?

you'll survive, ive been doing it for about a month and a half now.
you wont notice it at first but after a while youll notcie youre car bouncing more and handling bad... you should use it as an excuse to get better shocks
also, i dont know about you but honda said it would cost me 650$. i plan to get shocks for 350-400 DIY 'em
.. you should too, unless youre still underwarranty i guess

Not all that bad.
You'll just be ridding on the spring
And when corning opposite to that strut; it will lean more.
Worst case is in the long run you might need to get an alignment done.
It is suggested when ever the suspension is messed with.
