Does anyone have an easy way to identify which series of Bilstein struts are mounted in my 855T? First owner had them done at 55k, but didn't keep receipt or remember details. I have checked them out and they are clearly Bilsteins (from the bright blue color) but with 32k on them, the bodies are pretty well coated and I don't see any particular way to identify them as TC's or HD's. Whichever they are, they are a nice package for the car and we would probably use the same for our other 850 NA and XC when their time comes. I thought it was really nice of the PO to do the upgrade for me ;-) (bought it aat 60k).
