I'd have them checked first to determine if it is actually the shocks, or possibly just a loose or cracked line, which should be a pretty inexpensive fix. If it turns out to be shocks, weigh it out then.

There are two fuses on that circuit I believe. There is one labeled HVAC CTRL and HVAC HI, both should be located in the fuse block inside the car. Check both of those and make sure they are good.

As well, there is also a blower motor resistor that is located in the blower motor housing. Its very common for these to go bad and can cause issues with the motor not operating as well.

The rear shocks are eather standard gas shocks, or air shocks. If you have and air system to control the shocks then you would just have to unbolt them and disconnect the air line. Install them just as you took them off. If its just reagular shocks then you would have to remove 2 bolts.


Some cases there are 4 wheel struts, then you would have to unbolt them from the fender wells in the trunk.

Not to bad of a job but it can take a few.

kind of tricky, took me an hour to get it figured out, but you got to opend the trunk and take out the 10 or so 10mm nuts sticking out of the backside of the lid, then the whole solid piece where the lights are on the back will slide off, then you can change the bulbs above the license plate and put it all back together
