Noisy Suspension :(

[martin_mk3]

hey,
ive got a 54plate 182 with 57k on it. noticed recently that my suspension is sounding very bad recently. nothing in particular, just every little patch in the road thers a whack from my suspension. feels as tho it just not absorbing any of the impacts that is should. it is lowered on standard shocks, so thinking that the could just be knackered?

cheers,
martin

it could be your shocks, have a look at them and see if they have leaked any fluid.

ive got the same prob, and mines not lowered. Thinking its something simple like that too

Its common for the shocks to go, but best to have them checked just to make sure before changing them, i think they ar eabout £60 a corner to replace. I have a set going if needed. All the best
