Frequently Asked Questions
What are common signs of suspension problems in a car?
Common signs include a bumpy ride, uneven tyre wear, clunking noises over bumps, poor handling, or one side of the car sitting lower. You may also notice nose-diving during braking or excessive body roll. These issues suggest worn shocks, struts, or suspension components that need inspection and possible replacement to maintain safety and comfort.
How often should car suspension be checked?
Car suspension should be checked every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometres or during regular servicing. However, if you drive on rough roads, tow regularly or notice handling issues, it’s wise to have it inspected more frequently. Early detection of wear or damage can prevent further problems and ensure your vehicle drives smoothly and safely.
What’s the difference between shocks and struts?
Shocks and struts both help control vehicle movement and improve ride quality, but they serve slightly different roles. Shocks work with the suspension to absorb impacts, while struts are a structural part of the suspension system. Struts typically include a coil spring and mount. Most cars have either shocks or struts, depending on the design.
RESTORING CONTROL & COMFORT
Expert Car Suspension Repairs
A well-maintained steering and suspension system keeps your tyres planted, steering predictable and braking consistent. That’s why we take a whole-of-vehicle approach. We inspect every link and pivot point, from ball joints and sway bars to tie rods and mounts. If something’s worn, cracked or loose, we’ll fix it before it compromises your safety.
For 4WDs, we also offer suspension upgrades that enhance lift, articulation and durability, perfect for local off-road conditions. Whether your vehicle wanders, sits unevenly or just doesn’t feel right, we track down the cause and give you real solutions. It’s all about restoring confidence behind the wheel with parts and workmanship you can rely on.
