Default KW V3 Bump Adjuster
Anyone had a stuck bump adjuster on a KW V3 and if so, how did you free it off?

Cheers,

Its possibly a strip down job. I think they get stuck internally. May be wrong though...

If you need your suspension back, let me know. Bad news if the KW’s are buggered.

Two were stuck and after a good dose of Ferosol one of them is working again, so hopefully the other one will come back to life too.

Worst case scenario I'll have to get it rebuilt by KW. I'm talking to them at the moment.

Thanks anyway though...

Both stuck adjusters now free. Just needed a cocktail of Feresol and GT85
