...a little. It sounds expensive.
Without specifying what shock and the likely year (photos?) your not getting anywhere. Is it a coil or air compression system (if it's air, the damping adjuster is probably embedded in the next time wall?)

It appears to be a Rockshox Vivid 5.1. No idea what year - I'd guess 10 years old perhaps. I'm a motorbike guy, so couldn't tell you what kind of suspension it is! Spring with hydraulic, has an air valve as well.
Will see if I can figure out how to add pics...
It's this guy that is not playing ball
Maybe have a look at this https://www.sram.com/globalassets/document-hierarchy/service-manuals/rockshox/rear-suspension/gen0000000004712-rev-a-vivid-service-manual-english.pdf
I suppose you may get more traction (ha!) with the MTB community, too. Haven't seen a bike wrench one yet, but I learned a bit from them (am n00b, I'm basically too scared to service MTB suspension but hope to tear apart my dropper soon when I get the silly parts it needs).
Fiddly little things aren't they?
Haha, yes indeed. Shock, horror: I've reached out to the MTB community on Reddit (yes, I felt dirty) to see if they can help. Failing that, off to the shop
r/MTB may not be of quite a much help as r/bikewrench so I would consider giving that a shot, too
Yep, r/bikewrench is better if c/MTB doesn't help. Using r/MTB is only going to get you distracted with jumps
Nice, didn't know about that one. Cheers
I lost you after the first sentence, so it's nothing I can help with. The only person I've heard mention cycling is @SamC@lemmy.nz and that was road bikes but maybe they have experience with mountain bikes?
Another option would be to take it to a bike shop and ask!
Haha, yes that's the last resort! I am fundamentally a cheapskate, so if there's a chance I can fix or build something myself, I'm totally headed down that path lol
