But I was pretty disappointed with the Gas-Adjust back in mid 90s.
They usually lasted a year or two and either started to leak or got really stiff to the point that they locked up.
And since Boge/Sachs last almost the life of the car, I see no reason to go cheap but to use those (gas version) the very few times I have to replace a set on the old 900. This is true for both Saabs and Volvos using Boge/Sachs EXCEPT for a period in 94-95 NG900 where it seems that they did something wrong in the production of the Boge shocks and strutmounts, and pretty much all of them failed within 50-100K miles
