Hi guys,

So the middle top nut on my rear passenger shock is stripped. The two other nuts that connect to the chassis is secure. Anyone know if it is "safe" to drive in the meantime while I figure out what to do? There are lots of clunking noises coming from the rear when driving over even the tiniest imperfections.

I'm probably going to get the shock rebuild unless re-threading is a safe option? Any other suggestions?

FYI, the shocks are Ohlins and the car is an S5 coupe.

Thanks in advance!
