2005 Mazda3i AT, 150k miles
went for an oil change at the dealership.
the dealership always perform a free 'full circle' inspection.
they said my front strut was leaking. recommended replacing both.
4hrs labor ($100/hr) and $540 for both struts = $1000
they showed me where it was leaking but i couldnt tell so i i didnt get it fixed.
How can i tell if a front strut is going bad?
and what would happen if i didnt replace a leaky strut?
