Question: The rear passenger side drops over night

Question

But when I start and put in gear, it levels itself. I head someone indicating that it is due to dirty hydraulic fluid in ABC system and suggesting to extract it from the top and replace it, but I do not think you can suck out all the oil!

    I mean the car body drops due to shocks. The rear passenger side.

    Thanks. You think I need to replace the entire shock? Is there any cheaper remedy?

    check the air line to the shock if its not leaking then you will have to replace the shock
