What are the symptoms of abnormal noise from the Mercedes-Benz shock absorber top mount?
1 Answers
Abnormal noise from the car's shock absorber top mount has the following symptoms: Shock absorber noise: When the shock absorber top mount is severely worn or damaged, the vehicle's shock absorber will produce abnormal noise during operation. The steering may become tilted or the steering wheel may tilt when driving straight. Steering deviation: When the shock absorber top mount is damaged, the vehicle's steering may show slight deviation, difficulty in returning to center, and weak return force. Increased noise: Due to the lack of cushioning from the top mount, the shock absorber will transmit the absorbed vibrations and impacts directly from the frame to the passenger compartment during operation. There may also be abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel while stationary. Even if the shock absorber is not working, excessive wear or damage to the top mount can cause very noticeable abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel while stationary.
