Your suspension is one of the most important parts of your vehicle. The suspension consists of not just springs but also Shock absorbers which are filled with hydraulic fluid. When the shock absorber is compressed, this fluid is forced by a piston through a small hole in the shock absorber cylinder and into the other end of the unit. The design prevents this action happening quickly, so the spring is restricted from continuing to bounce, helping to keep all four tyres in good contact with the road surface.
Trouble Shooting
Try this simple 'bounce' test. Press down on one corner of your car and let go. Count the number of bounces before the car comes to rest. If the car bounces even twice, your shock absorbers are faulty and your suspenion should be checked straight away at Fairway Tyre & Auto Services.
