Just did a tyre rotation and noticed the rear right shock leaking.
Has anyone else had this problem before?

Bring it back to the dealer, my car has 33000km and no shocks leaking
Is it dripping oil or just a bit of dusty oily film on the body of the shock? The reason I ask is I know a certain well known aftermarket shock company (not a maker of cheap shocks either) says oil on the body is "normal" and they won't replace them unless they're dripping oil. It will be interesting to see what Suzuki's view is.

Dripping oil onto the inside of the wheel.
Visible oil build up on the top and bottom of the shock, 60000 ks on the clock.
It is booked in for the 22nd of Feb, have read of a few cases of this just curious as to how many, and there outcome.
In the owners handbook it states shock absorbers are not warranted to perform the same due to degregation after 50000 ks, will be interesting to see how they view a shock blowout with considerable oil leakage.

I think it would be covered in the US.
