How a Suspension Inspection works with My Auto Shop:
Our mechanic will raise your car and look underneath for any signs of damage or deterioration. They will then proceed to check for excessive tyre wear, damage to the wheel bearings, springs, shock absorbers or struts. After this they will check the CV joints, and inspect the suspension arms, bars and bushes for signs of damage.
They will then quote up any repairs or replacement parts if required.
When your finding that one tyre is wearing faster than the others its often as a result of a:
- Issue with improper air pressure in one tyre
- Wheel misalignment
- Tyres have not been rotated
- Damaged suspension
Popular services linked to a Suspension Inspection:
Tie Rod End Replacement
When you turn your steering wheel, you like to think your car will go in that direction. The tie rod is a valuable component in making that happen. When you turn the wheel one tie rod pulls the wheel towards it and the other tie rod pushes the other wheel away from it. This is what turns your car. It is important that these are fitted correctly and doing their job to keep you safe on the road.
CV Boot Replacement
CV boots work much the same as boots you wear on your feet; they're designed to keep moisture dirt and grit out of an area where it’s not wanted. The CV joint has a really important job and some important bearing and seals make this happen. The CV boot protects these components to ensure your car works as it should.
Rear Shock Absorber Replacement
Your shock absorber comes in a long round container with a metal rod sticking out of one end. It is this rod that travels up and down through the shock absorber and manages the travel of the suspension.
Power Steering Rack Replacement
The power steering rack is a critical component in the steering of your vehicle. It determines where you aim your front wheels when turning the steering wheel.
