How to Determine the Quality of Car Shock Absorbers?

[NaomiDella]

Methods to determine the quality of car shock absorbers: First, check if the shock absorber is leaking oil. If there is any leakage, repair it immediately. If there is no oil leakage, a simple way to judge is to drive the car on an uneven road for 10 to 15 kilometers, then touch the shell of the shock absorber by hand to see if it is hot. If it does not heat up, it means the shock absorber may have lost its damping effect due to lack of oil or damage to key components, and it should be removed for inspection, repair, or replacement of parts. The shock absorber is mainly used to suppress the oscillation when the spring rebounds after absorbing shock and the impact from the road surface. When driving on uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing spring can filter the vibration of the road, the spring itself will still have reciprocating motion, and the shock absorber is used to suppress this spring jumping.
