The suspension of a passenger car is subjected to the greatest loads during natural operation. Even if the driver loads the engine moderately, the actual road conditions can negatively affect the suspension elements. The first to suffer is shock absorber strut support . But how to determine the moment of its critical wear?
Listening to the car
The most basic sign is a dry impact on the body of a car during a collision with an obstacle on the road. It is difficult to confuse it with other sounds. It will repeat itself with enviable consistency. To others it is worth adding:
- deterioration in the quality of management;
- body swing during acceleration and deceleration;
- impact at the moment of braking in the area of the wheel.
Important: if the machine needs to replace the shock absorbers due to natural or premature wear, the strut supports must also be replaced. Since they are guaranteed to have received critical wear.
