I'm on with the front end suspension, due to a broken spring, on the 2015 1.0 Picanto we have and thought I'd loosen the lower end of the rear shocks to test their health. The bolt is simply damn tight all the way off on the nut. Had to use 1/2" breaker bar to get it out half way so have left it dowsed in DW40 for 24 hours to ease off.
Its weird that a shocker bolt is so tight all the way. Wired brushed the bolt threaded end and DW40'd before starting but still damn tight.
Any Picanto owners had this bother? .... I suspect it'll be a new nut and bolt.
