    Hello Ferraristi,
    I am the lucky owner of a Ferrari 412 since the year 2000 and now I have to change the two accumulators wich are a part of the rear suspension and the self-leveling system. The original Koni accumulators are not to be found as spare parts anymore. We have to use similar accumulators from the market.
    My problem is to get knowledge of what pressure (nitrogen gas) we should put into the new accumulators?
    Nobody seems to know!? Not even KONI!
    Help will be much appreciated!
    Best regards!

    Several years ago I rebuilt 4 Koni hydraulic shocks. I tried to get some technical information from Koni. My experience was there was a corporate policy to not release any technical information. They know the information, but they won't tell anyone.
