Re: Chinese airmatic
The real ones from the US have got much cheaper.
Might try some of the usual suspects over there.
There are remanufactured originals as well.

Re: Chinese airmatic
I was flirting with the idea of no name type struts but decided to just fix the leak. All good now but interestingly whilst reading up on new Arnott replacements It seems you lose the electronic damping feature ie 'sport 1' and 'sport 2' are not available, only 'comfort' on all three ride settings. Not that it would worry me as comfort is the prerequisite these days..
