hi guys,
can anyone advise me on the price of replacing or repairing the suspension system of a normal sedan car like a sunny?
i'm not talking about zhng~ing or tuning kind. juz need to repair or replace because i think my suspension system is going up the lorry liao... can feel every bumps and stones on the road 'transmitting to my chassis' these days..
i suspect the damage is due to my constant overloading of people and baggages especially at the back of the car..
btw will replacing the absorbers help alot?
thanks!
Firstly, ensure that your suspensions have not become soft by slowly pressing your car downwards. If it bounces up and down easily, it is a sign that eminent replacement is required.
You may also want to hear whether there are knocking sounds when you go over bumps and humps when you drive.
The best thing to do is to actually send the car in to a reputable workshop for a diagnosis and if it really does need replacing, please do so!
Otherwise your under carriage might be damaged in the long run if your suspensions are soft which would result in the undercarriage of the car hitting against the surface of the road should it not be able to take the pressure weight of the car as it goes over road depressions, high humps etc.
For a normal car like a Nissan Sunny, a good estimate would be around $400 for all suspension struts, including labour.
I am currently using bilstein comfort shocks which retail for about $600-$700 a pop for all four, inclusive of labour.
Hope this helps mate!
