However, I'd crawl under the car and look at the rear struts. If they are leaking, skip on down the road and find something else.

This.

Spheres aren't expensive, the fluid isn't that bad either. Spheres, fluid, and lubricating the linkage on the valve made all the difference in the world on my SLS cars. However the hydraulic rams usually cost more than the car.
