Why is my suspension making a knocking sound when driving over bumps?

A simple test can often reveal whether there is a problem with the suspension. If the knocking persists, you should have the components checked in a workshop. Repair costs can be up to 600 euros, depending on which parts need to be replaced.

How can I tell if my shock absorbers are defective?

A worn shock absorber not only affects driving comfort but also significantly impacts the vehicle's safety. Defective shock absorbers can lead to spongy handling, uneven tire wear, and poor road holding. Visual inspection and driving tests can help identify defective shock absorbers.

Front shock absorbers are particularly vulnerable and should be checked regularly. Shock absorbers generally should be replaced after a certain mileage to ensure optimal driving conditions. Preventing defective dampers is crucial for the longevity of the suspension and road safety.

What signs indicate suspension problems?

Signs of suspension problems include restless handling, poor road holding, a sagging rear end, or vibrations while driving. A thorough inspection is necessary to determine the exact cause. Such symptoms can indicate defective shock absorbers, which impair contact with the road.

Through a thorough inspection, a defective shock absorber can be identified and replaced accordingly. Only this way can it be ensured that the vehicle remains safe and stable on the road.

Why does my car pull to one side, and how do I fix it?

A car that pulls to one side can indicate incorrect wheel alignment, uneven tire wear, or brake problems. An axle alignment and thorough inspection are required to fix the problem. Especially the shock absorbers, as safety-relevant components, should be checked because they are often oil-filled and can lose their function in case of a leak.

Safety-relevant components like these must always be in perfect condition to ensure driving safety. Timely maintenance can prevent expensive repairs and extend the vehicle's lifespan.

How do I check if my springs are broken?

To check for broken springs, visually inspect the condition of the springs, look for cracks or fractures, and check if the vehicle sags unevenly. If broken springs are suspected, a professional workshop should be consulted.

Can I change the ride height of my car?

The ride height can be changed by replacing the springs or shock absorbers. However, it is important to note that changes to the ride height can affect the suspension geometry, and it is advisable to have this done by professionals.

How long do shock absorbers and springs usually last?

The lifespan of shock absorbers and springs can vary depending on driving conditions. Generally, they should be checked and possibly replaced every 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers or if there are signs of wear. However, it is not uncommon for signs of wear to appear after just 20,000 kilometers under particularly demanding driving conditions.

Oil-filled shock absorbers are often found in older vehicles and should be monitored particularly carefully. A thorough inspection of the shock absorbers is advisable after 60,000 kilometers at the latest to ensure safety and driving comfort.
