Car Suspension Services in Victor Harbor by Fleurieu Automotive

A car’s suspension system is a complex network designed to provide stability, control, and comfort. The primary components include:

Understanding Your Car’s Suspension System

Springs: These absorb the impact from road irregularities.

Shock Absorbers (or Struts): These dampen the oscillation of springs to ensure smooth motion.

Control Arms: These connect the wheel hub to the vehicle frame, allowing for controlled movement.

Ball Joints: These spherical bearings allow for pivoting of control arms.

Bushings: These provide cushioning between parts and reduce vibration.

Sway Bars (Stabiliser Bars): These help in reducing body roll during cornering.

Tie Rods: These connect the steering mechanism to the wheels.

Over time, the suspension system endures significant wear and tear due to various factors such as road conditions, driving habits and vehicle load. Common issues include:

Wear and Tear Symptoms on Suspension Components

 Springs: Can sag, break or lose their elasticity.

Shock Absorbers: May leak fluid, lose their damping ability, or become worn out.

Control Arms and Ball Joints: Can experience wear and loosening, leading to poor alignment and handling.

Bushings: May crack, harden, or deteriorate, causing increased vibration and noise.

Sway Bars: Can become bent or the links can wear out, affecting vehicle stability.

Tie Rods: Can loosen or wear, leading to steering issues.

At Fleurieu Automotive, we offer a comprehensive range of suspension services to address any issues your vehicle might encounter. Our services include:

Spring Replacement: If your springs are sagging or broken, we can replace them with high-quality parts to restore ride height and comfort.
