Frequently Asked Questions
How long do shock absorbers last?
Shock absorbers generally last between 60,000 and 100,000 kilometres, depending on driving conditions and vehicle load. Harsh roads, towing or heavy use can shorten their lifespan. Worn shocks affect handling and braking efficiency, so replacing them on time is crucial for both safety and driving comfort.
Can bad suspension affect braking?
Yes, worn suspension can increase braking distance. If shocks or struts are failing, they allow excessive vehicle weight transfer during braking, reducing tyre grip. This makes it harder to stop quickly and safely. Keeping suspension in good condition is essential for reliable braking performance.
Is wheel alignment part of suspension servicing?
Yes, wheel alignment is closely linked to suspension health. Poor alignment often results from worn suspension parts and can cause uneven tyre wear, pulling to one side and reduced fuel efficiency. Including alignment checks in suspension servicing keeps handling precise and tyres lasting longer.
