Question Cusco Coilovers leaking!??! CLunking noise?!

I have been hearing clunking noises from my suspension. Started in the back of the car and moved into the front. I took a look at the driver’s side of my coilover and it looks like hell. It is filthy dirty like oil is leaking out or something. Is this common? Could this cause the clunking noise? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
david

I don't have a digital camera so I can't post any pics.. I believe the Coilovers are the Cusco Stage 2 with adjustable camber. I bought the car with them already on it. When I first got the car last August the coilovers looked nice and clean.. now the front ones look really dirty and greasy (kinda like looking at a dirty greasy motor). Is this common?

Just installed mine a little while back. Thing doe get dirty. Mines from the first time it rained. Clean it off with some degreeser. Then recheck if you still got grease or oil on the coilover. Your best bet would be to remove and check it outside of the vehicle.
