Identifying self leveling shock? V70-XC70

Raise the car and look at the rear shocks. If they're big and fat, they're most likely self-leveling. If they're skinny and look like every other shock in the world, then they're not.

You might also see words like "Nivomat" on there, which would indicate self-leveling, too.
