Hmm, could you maybe go into a tad more detail as to what you mean by bounces? Do you mean like you feel the bounciness of the spring? What if the ride just feels rather harsh over bumps?

What did you do to check them? Visually look for them leaking?

This is for my daily - 2002 CRV with 143,000 miles, I figured the struts must be close to going bad, they don't last forever, that's just springs right?
