What to Do If the Shock Absorbers Are Too Hard?
1 Answers
The solutions for excessively hard shock absorbers are as follows: 1. New car break-in period: Generally, the shock absorbers feel too hard because the car is new, and the components have not fully broken in yet. It is normal for the owner to feel that the shock absorbers are too hard, and the situation will improve after the break-in period. 2. Reduce tire pressure: The hardness of the shock absorbers can be adjusted by changing the tire pressure. However, the reduced tire pressure should still be within the normal range. This method can provide slight relief. 3. Upgrade to adjustable shock absorbers: Consult professionals and, if modifications are allowed, replace the shock absorbers with adjustable ones, such as coilover shock absorbers, which can also adjust height and damping. Additional information: 1. Telescopic shock absorbers are widely used in automotive suspension systems and can dampen both compression and extension strokes, known as double-acting shock absorbers. There are also new types of shock absorbers, including gas-filled shock absorbers and adjustable-resistance shock absorbers. 2. It is important to note that the hardness of car shock absorbers is designed based on the vehicle's specifications. Unauthorized modifications may affect the car's performance and safety and carry certain risks. If modifications are necessary, they should be performed at a reputable professional shop.
