A FBO representative unsolicitedly finished off the right door strut. I had an Odyssey 680 infant mortality problem and was trying to diagnose. Without thinking the FBO rep held the door open with a Vise Grip tool while I had told my brother in law that I was going to get a bungee cord. Needless to say the Vise Grip scarred the strut shaft and created a significant leak and collapsed the strut. I have the second generation of the strut installed but it was beginning to wear over time. Anyone know what is being used now. The Odyssey 680 apparently has a bad batch being sold. When I mentioned my problem a hangar mate said that he knew at least two others.
