Title: Suspension and shock absorber
Post by: speedster on November 08, 2010, 08:56:03 PM
Hi all fellow lation, i am a new car owner and just want to check with all of you if there is anyway to know the condition of the shock absorber. What i am meaning is the sound made when going over hump or height of the suspension. Noticed my rear suspension is make a "thump" sound when going over hump unless i bring it to a complete stop and roll over at a super low speed. I also noticed recently my rear looks more lowered then before and the gap between the tyre and wheel arch for my rear is really close. Thanks all for your advised.  :confused1:

I suggest u bring to Tan Chong to check as yours is under warranty but think only Ubi has the cap to do the test.

no more warranty with tan chong. so am reluctant to go back. the checking cost will be high.
