Ohlins Service?
Can anyone suggest a Canadian shop who service Ohlin dampers?
I’d rather not ship mine to Ohlins in the US for their eventual service/rebuild. One shop in Ontario who service Ohlin bike dampers do not touch the auto products unfortunitely.

These guys list themselves as a factory authorized rebuild centre for Ohlins. I haven't dealt with them but was planning to last year before going in another direction. |

Good to know for future reference. And right where i live too, in fact practically walking distance.
I've put on around 50K km with only 2 or 3 autocross days in the 8 or so years I've had my Ohlin's. They seem to be functioning great, though they have always sounded a bit clunky in the rear. I might have left out a plastic washer at the reartop mount when installing, who knows. Busy dealing with a flutter that just developed in the blowoff valve for the HKS supercharger currently. I don't feel like removing the front bumper until winter storage season, though. No CELs just a fluttery sound at blowoff.

Regarding your clunky rear. You may benefit from the Energy Suspension parts I have posted for sale in the Canadian Classifieds. Good luck resolving that flutter.
