Shock Absorber Malfunction Light - F355

Just remove the trunk carpeting

 

Difficulty level 1~2/10… if you take the following precautions:

Don’t put any screws on the top surface of the HVAC fresh air inlet assembly. They may fall down the water drain hole and you’ll need a vacuum hose to fish them out.

When putting the carpet pieces back together, don’t drop the fasteners which hold the carpet pieces together, otherwise you’ll be repeating a lot of the reassembly process.

Some folks have reported white talc being used on the rubber seal (which can be messy). Vacuum as you go.

The narrower parts of the carpet can be quite fragile. Before I replaced my carpet pieces with new, the backing surface of my carpet pieces had about 40 cracks in it. The cracks can be repaired with rubberised superglue (even my new carpet had some cracks in it). Note that the carpet pieces may be NLA. Because of their fragility and size, parts sellers refuse to stock them. When I received one piece, it was twisted like a pretzel. Fortunately it flattened with heat and some gentle coaxing.

Basically:
Remove the rubber frunk circumferential seal (should be friction fit)
Remove 4 Phillips screws from HVAC fresh air inlet.
Remove clip-in cover from brake/clutch reservoir.
Remove metal rub strips in the frunk cavity, taking note of things like screw lengths, strip assembly order, etc. Mark the pieces left/right.
Remove carpeted fuse box cover and battery cutoff cover and locate fasteners holding the windshield carpet piece and the side carpet pieces together. Depending on the last person who worked on the car, the fasteners may come in all shapes and sizes. You may need a variety of small sockets, spanners, screwdrivers and improvised tools.
You may have to remove or loosen the side carpet pieces to get the big windshield carpet section out. If you do need to do this, the reassembly process can become a large jigsaw puzzle. Be sure to disconnect (and reconnect) the wiring for the frunk light. Access the connector via the fusebox cavity. Note that the carpet pieces which fit around the frunk lid hinges are very fragile. There are screws and tape holding in some sections of carpet. I’m not sure if the tape is still available.

The front suspension actuators are buried amongst the wiring and plumbing, but not too difficult to get to.
Always be sure that the actuators are properly clipped in with metal spring clips. Sometimes the actuators look ok, but actually need an extra push to seat properly.

 

Now it seems all informations needed are present.
Thank you very much !
