Spain 2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Santorini Black
RRS L494 2014 FRONT AIR SHOCK DAMAGE

I have noticed my suspension was a bit rough and noisy going over potholes etc. I took it to the JLR dealer here in Spain and they advised me one of the front shocks was damaged and i will need to replace both front ones. I'm sure this will be expensive.
the car has only done 40k miles etc, does anyone know why i would need to change them both?

thanks

Jax

Spain 

I think a little more info might help.
What year is the car, engine, etc.

Maybe worth getting a local garage to check the front bushes etc prior to fitting new struts

Also worth looking on the Disco 3/4 forum as they are more into DIY In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

Shocks are always replaced in pairs.

It’s a stability and safety issue...... 2019 Svr and 2019 R35 GTR
