Default Any long term issues lowering an AVS car

I'm thinking about lowering my 2017 RCF and would like to know if anyone has had any issues with lowering an AVS equipped car. I'm based in the UK so would more than likely have to buy them from the USA.

I had. A 2017 and lowered it with swift springs , the front and back shock leaked . I don’t know if it was the shock or just coincidence but when I had 2 2015s which were lowered this issue never came up

Thanks, so I'm guessing the dealership didn't sort it under warranty then. Was it a case of too much strain on the seals due to the active nature of the AVS do you think?
