I got my Tein SS in today, and I noticed something weird. It says it's 16-way adjustable, but the adjuster knob clicks like 25 times instead of 16 before stopping.

And one of them doesn't even "click". It spins alright when going stiffer, but it doesn't click at all. When turning it counterclockwise to make it softer, it clicks just fine. And this one also goes like 25 clicks, instead of 16.

Did I get a busted set or what? It's brand new.

Read your manual.
It explains why there are more then 16 actual “clicks”.
It also explains where the minimum & maximum should be set at.
I don’t have mine handy, but I believe the standard setting is 8-clicks down from full.
As for the one that doesn’t “click”, I can’t help you there.

Thanks for the information, Shawn.

Do you think I've damaged the dampers by turning it beyond 16 clicks??

I'm pretty sure it says dont turn it past 16 clicks or you can permanently damage a shock but since you havent driven on it (or have you) it shouldnt do any damage.

No, my car is in the shop right now, so they are not on yet.

I'm just really worried about the one that doesn't "click" now. I think it's busted from the factory.
