Suspension, Shocks and Struts
SERVICE OVERVIEW
Maintain Comfort, Stability and Control on the Road
Your vehicle’s suspension system plays an important role in ride comfort, handling and stability. Over time, shock absorbers, struts, and other suspension components can wear out, affecting how your car responds to bumps, corners, and braking. Signs of wear may include excessive bouncing, uneven tyre wear, unusual noises or a less comfortable ride.
Worn suspension components can affect more than driving comfort. They may reduce vehicle stability, affect tyre contact with the road and influence braking performance. Regular inspections can help identify damaged or deteriorating parts before they contribute to further handling or tyre wear problems.
At E & M Mechanical, we inspect suspension components, including shock absorbers, struts, springs, bushes, ball joints and control arms. If we find worn or damaged parts, we’ll explain what needs attention, recommend suitable repairs or replacements and provide a quote before proceeding.

FAQ
Got Questions? We've Got Answers
Find answers to frequently asked questions about suspension problems, signs of wear and when your vehicle may need repairs.
Common signs include excessive bouncing after bumps, the front of your car dipping during braking, reduced stability at higher speeds, uneven tyre wear or visible fluid leaks. If you notice these symptoms, it's worth having your suspension inspected.
Shock absorbers are generally recommended to be replaced in pairs on the same axle, either front or rear. Replacing only one may result in uneven damping and affect your vehicle's handling and stability.
Clunking noises can be caused by worn sway bar links, suspension bushes, ball joints or other components. We'll inspect the suspension to help identify the cause and provide a quote for any necessary repairs.
