HIEDGE

If anyone has a factory service manual, all I am trying to find out is where the access (inside the cargo area behind the panels or outside via the inner fender wells) is for the top of the rear shocks. Thanks in advance. I can't find a aftermarket repair manuals and might have to end up buying the factory manual from the dealership or online.

Just a shot in the dark. If anyone has replaced rear shocks themselves please chime in if you have some procedures to share. Thanks!

Any update to your situation and did you replace the rear shocks yourself? Here is a post I started unti I found this one: My link The dealer stated it was covered under the extended warranty but the warrany company said only struts are, not shocks. I can't believe that the quality is so poor to go bad so soon. I have double the mileage and 20 years old on my Corvette but still have the original shocks.

Thanks for your reply. There is no leaking oil from the outside and not sure if they were able to see something different when on the rack and up in the air looking up. The sweating I saw was just some stains on the outside of the shock upper portion. I'll try to get a second opinion from a shop that specializes in suspension. Sometimes these dealers just try to make some money. The roads in Hawaii are not great but none of my other vehicle that are way older with much more miles have ever had issues with shocks.

The local dealer stated new rear shocks are need at the 30K service yesterday. A 2007 with 30K and new rear shocks? They said the shocks are sweating and I have never heard the term. They are not covered under warranty either. If need be, has anyone changed rear shocks on their Edge yet? If so, I see the bottom is very easy but without a service manual I can't tell where the top gets removed. Either from inside by removing the panel or from the outside by removing the inner rear wheel well? Thanks for sharing any thoughts or experience on this.
