Suspension Component Inspection

Signs Your Suspension Needs Repair

Excessive Bouncing: If your vehicle continues to bounce after going over bumps or feels unstable when cornering, your shock absorbers may be worn and need replacement.

Uneven Tyre Wear: Worn suspension components can cause irregular tyre wear patterns, leading to premature tyre replacement and compromised safety.

Vehicle Pulling: If your car pulls to one side while driving or the steering wheel is off-centre, this could indicate worn suspension bushes or alignment issues.

Clunking Noises: Strange noises when going over bumps or turning corners often indicate worn suspension components that require immediate attention.

Suspension Safety Information

Driving with worn suspension is dangerous and can affect your vehicle's MOT test. Faulty suspension can increase stopping distances by up to 20% and significantly reduce your control over the vehicle, especially in emergency situations.

We recommend having your suspension checked annually during your service or if you notice any changes in your vehicle's handling characteristics. Early intervention can prevent more expensive repairs and ensure your safety.

Frequently Asked Questions About Suspension Repairs

How do I know if my suspension needs repairing?

Common signs include excessive bouncing over bumps, uneven tyre wear, the vehicle pulling to one side, clunking noises from the suspension, or a general feeling that the car is not handling as well as it used to. If you notice any of these symptoms, book an inspection with us.

How long do suspension repairs take?

Most suspension repairs can be completed within a day. Simple component replacements like shock absorbers typically take 2-4 hours, while more complex work may take longer. We'll provide you with an accurate time estimate when we quote for the work.

Should I replace suspension components in pairs?

Yes, we generally recommend replacing suspension components in pairs (both sides) to maintain balanced handling and prevent premature wear of the new component. This ensures your vehicle handles predictably and safely.

How much do suspension repairs cost?

Suspension repair costs vary depending on what needs to be replaced. Basic repairs start from £149, with more complex work costing more. We always provide a detailed quote before starting any work, with no hidden charges.

Will my car need a wheel alignment after suspension work?

Often yes, especially if steering or suspension components have been replaced. A wheel alignment ensures your tyres wear evenly and your vehicle tracks straight. We'll advise you if an alignment is needed and can perform this service.

Do you offer a warranty on suspension repairs?

Yes, all our suspension repair work comes with a comprehensive warranty covering both parts and labour. The warranty period depends on the specific components fitted, and we'll explain the terms when we quote for your repair.
