Yes, you can test drive a car. Below are the relevant instructions for test driving: 1. Inspect the vehicle: Before test driving, observe the vehicle's exterior for any obvious scratches, dents, or cracks to avoid liability issues after the test drive. Experience the space in different positions inside the car, especially the rear seats, such as legroom, shoulder room, and headroom. 2. Check the driver's position: After getting in, adjust the seat to feel if the driver's space, seat, and steering wheel position are comfortable and suitable. 3. Acceleration/Braking performance: For testing acceleration and braking, choose a closed road section if possible. Test items include throttle response from standstill to over 60km/h and acceleration capability above 60km/h.

Solutions for Shock Absorber Noise in Chery Arrizo 5

The causes of shock absorber noise include oil leakage and aging of the top mount thrust bearing. Below are the specific reasons for shock absorber noise: Shock absorber oil leakage: When the shock absorber leaks oil, the interior of the shock tube cannot be effectively lubricated, resulting in significant friction noise during operation. Aging of the top mount thrust bearing: The thrust bearing is located in the engine compartment. Open the hood and press down on the body to listen if the noise is coming from the top mount of the shock absorber. If so, it is likely due to aging of the thrust bearing. If the shock absorber spring is deformed or broken, the only solution is to replace the entire shock absorber spring.
