Sounds like they're stuffed! To be sure I'd take 'em to your LBS and see what they say. On mine you can feel the difference quite clearly between each click.

You should be able to feel the difference in the rebound settings
if not sounds like something is not right.

The compression you change at the top of the fork only effects the performance
towards the end of the travel. So changing that and then bouncing around on it
you wont feel any difference. It will only become apparent when you begin using
most travel on the trail.

To change low speed compression you use the knob at the bottom of the right leg.
You should feel a significant difference by just pushing on the fork

sweet, i didn't know about the compression only using the end of travel.
what do you think is wrong?

there are a large number of clicks with the low speed compression knob. Try going to both extremes, and then see if it makes a difference. I have this fork and it works amazing.
