Shock absorber is a vulnerable part in the use of automobiles. Whether the shock absorber works well or not will directly affect the driving stability of automobiles and the life of other parts. Therefore, we should make the shock absorber in good working condition. Today Xiaobian will talk with you about how to judge the problem of the car shock absorber.

The following faults occur after the damper is damaged:

1. Shock absorber leakage. The external surface of ordinary shock absorbers is dry and clean. If oil seeps out, the hydraulic oil in the shock absorber leaks out from the upper part of the piston rod. In this case, the shock absorber basically fails.

2. When a car passes through a rough road or a deceleration belt, the wheel makes a "bang", indicating that the shock absorber on the wheel is ineffective or ineffective.

3. When the car steers, the roll of the car body increases obviously, and even slips when it is serious. This is mainly because the damp force of the shock absorber is too small to effectively suppress the compression of the spring.

4. After a period of driving on rough roads, we feel the temperature of the shock absorber shell with our hands. Under normal conditions, the shock absorber housing is warm. If the shock absorber housing is cool, this means that the shock absorber has been damaged.

5. When the car stops, when we press a corner of the body and release it, the body will rebound under the action of spring force. If the rebound is stable quickly, the shock absorber is good; if the shock absorber stops several times, it shows that the damper's damp effect is slightly worse.

What will happen if the shock absorber is damaged without replacement?

The shock absorber is mainly used to maximize the cushioning of the height of the car's gravity center, save energy, reduce wind resistance and reduce the impact on tires caused by the change of the car's gravity center. This means that not replacing the damaged shock absorber will increase fuel consumption, cause tire gnawing, and cause serious deformation of vehicle suspension. If you don't want a chain reaction and need to pay more for repairs, you can avoid replacing the damaged shock absorber.

Gnawing phenomenon

Replacement of one shock absorber or a pair of shock absorbers

Shock absorbers are related to the comfort and safety of automobiles. Once they are damaged at high speed, the consequences are very serious and the speed of the car is too fast, which leads to the roll of the car and the fracture of the axle. These are all possible occurrences, not one-sided words.

If the shock absorber is damaged, it is better to replace a pair of left and right shock absorbers together, so that the balance of the car is very necessary, left and right must be symmetrical, once the models on both sides are different, it is easy to cause the imbalance between the left and right sides of the car in the course of driving, affecting the safety of driving.
