I coated all seals with oil during assembly.

On top of this, my x2c which i ran the whole day have leaking big bores, these shocks are £53 a pair, they shouldn't sodding leak

I guessing i'm 'just unlucky'
How old are the O rings?

The "grabbing" usually means your seals have swolen. When you cleaned the shocks did any motor spray or something similar hit the O rings? This can cause that to happen.
