Yes it is 12 pages long and will suck ( why i Have not done it yet) I just keep filling them because i am lazy and some day will have V2 shocks.
I've found that they leak less after following these directions during a rebuild. If it's a brand new kit i'd be tempted to take it back. as a good as ae cars have been designed some of the build quality can be poor. the version 2 shocks in T4.1 are a bit less prone to leaking but a lot easier to repair/rebuild. good luck.
