Reasons for Squeaking Noise When Pressing the Front Shock Absorber?
1 Answers
Front shock absorber squeaking noise when pressed can be caused by the following reasons: Shock absorber malfunction: This is due to the shock absorber colliding with the leaf spring, frame, or axle, damaged or detached rubber pads, deformation of the shock absorber dust cover, or insufficient fluid. Shock absorber top rubber bushing breakage: This indicates that the noise is caused by the front lower control arm bushing or a broken shock absorber top rubber bushing, leading to the squeaking sound from the front shock absorber. Function of the shock absorber: In the car suspension system, the shock absorber always works in conjunction with the spring. When one corner of the car body is pressed down, it is actually the spring that is compressed, while the corresponding control arm swings. When the car body is released, the spring force causes the body to rebound, and the shock absorber dampens this rebound, helping the car body to stabilize after the rebound.
