How Often Should the Shock Absorber Be Replaced?

Aug 15 , 2022

Ⅰ. What is a shock absorber?


The shock absorber refers to the "tube" in the middle of the entire shock absorber. Its function is to suppress the excess rebound generated by the spring during operation and to slow down the excess vibration, and the shock absorber is the shock absorber + spring combined product. Komman offers high quality wholesale shock absorbers. Welcome to contact us.


Ⅱ. How often should the shock absorber be replaced?


Generally speaking, the shock absorber needs to be checked every 100,000 kilometers. However, different models and driving habits of car owners will cause differences between cars. Therefore, 100,000 kilometers is not the standard for replacing shock absorbers. The replacement is subject to the actual vehicle condition.


Ⅲ. How to check whether the shock absorber of the car is damaged?


1. Whether the shock absorber leaks oil.


The outer surface of ordinary shock absorbers is dry and clean. If oil seeps out, the hydraulic oil in the shock absorber leaks from the upper part of the piston rod. In this case, the shock absorber basically failed.


Remember to use the 4S shop's weight lifter to lift it up during maintenance and observe more.


If you observe that the adjustable air shock absorbers is full of oil, especially if you find oil droplets on the bottom of the shock absorber, then your shock absorber needs to be replaced.


2. When the car passes through rough roads or speed bumps, the wheels make a "bang" sound, indicating that the shock absorbers on the wheels are invalid or ineffective.


3. When the car turns, the roll of the car body increases significantly, and even side slip occurs in severe cases. This is mainly because the damping force of the shock absorber is too small to effectively suppress the compression of the spring.


4. After driving on rough roads for a period of time, we can feel the temperature of the shock absorber housing with our hands. Under normal conditions, the shock absorber housing is warm. If the shock absorber housing is cold, it means the shock absorber is damaged.
