HSD MonoPro Coilovers - Help

[ST_ASH_180]

Hi all. Recently (last week) purchased a FiST -2. Good condition low miles and stage 2 hardware and remap. all good but the ride is so hard its killing me already and letting me down to the degree I am struggling to enjoy driving it.

the ride is hard and feels like it is set up to track settings. The coilovers are HSD MonoPro which i understand are easy adjustable. However….. not so easy it seems.
is anyone else running these on a Fiesta and if so how are you adjusting them? I feel the adjuster isnt in the boot or under the bonnet. I cant see where the tool to adjust them would go and have looked briefly under the car passenger rear and cant see where or how to adjust. Before I bin them off anyone have any suggestions or same set up lease.

Their website indicates the adjustment is by turning the shaft from the top. It says with a click control knob.

Yes mine doesn’t have that. This was my point mine seems different. Mine should have the ability to adjust but I don’t. I can buy the adjuster tool but I don’t even think I have the fitting to even adjust them. The last image red one is a picture of from YouTube of how’s mine should look. I just wondered if someone else has the same coilovers on a fiesta so I can see if mine is wrong or I’m being thick.

Are you sure you have the same shocks? The picture I posted comes from the page for the Mk 7 Fiesta ST coilovers. If you're sure you have their shocks, they claim 5 star support. Their phone number and email address are on their website and they are in the UK.

Yes I am in touch with their support/Alex. Apparently mine are adjusted from under the car so wheels off at the back and can adjust by hand and the front I need the extenders.

wasn’t planning or doing work on the car straight away but will have to as the ride is far to stiff and the easy adjust isn’t possible. Under he car I go.
