Suspension diagnostics at the GlavUpDK car service center
Even the most reliable car undergoes natural wear and tear over time, especially in a critical system like the suspension. It's this part that absorbs road bumps, ensuring passenger comfort. The efficiency and flawless operation of the suspension directly impact the safety of driving. So, when is it necessary to pay attention to suspension diagnostics and a car's suspension check?
- Reduced driving comfort: If your vehicle struggles more with road bumps or exhibits excessive body roll during turns, it's a clear sign to consult a specialist.
- Unusual noises and knocks: One of the most obvious signs of suspension issues is the presence of various knocks or noises when driving over uneven roads or even on asphalt. This could indicate problems in both the front and rear suspensions.
- Unusual tire wear: If your car's tires wear unevenly or more quickly than usual, it could indicate incorrect installation or suspension component wear.
- Steering issues: Feeling your car veering or the steering wheel vibrating or shaking indicates the need for suspension diagnostics.
According to statistics, every fifth road accident is related to suspension system faults. Hence, regular checks and diagnostics not only maintain driving comfort but are also key to your safety on the road.
Diagnostic features
For many car enthusiasts, the term "suspension diagnostics" might seem commonplace, but the process has its subtleties and particularities, understanding which assures the quality of the work done.
Suspension is a critical system in a car, and its reliability directly influences driving safety.
- Comprehensive approach: A vehicle's suspension comprises numerous components: shock absorbers, springs, tie rods, bushings, bearings, and many more. During a car's suspension diagnostics, each of these parts is thoroughly checked for defects or wear.
- High-tech equipment: In modern times, specialized stands are used for diagnostics, providing high-precision assessments of the suspension's elements and conducting diagnostics under load.
Diagnostic stages
- Visual inspection: Specialists examine the suspension for visible defects, such as cracks, damage, or leakage of shock absorber fluid.
- Diagnosis on a specialized stand: The vehicle is placed on the stand, and various sensors and devices assess the functionality of each suspension element individually and the system as a whole.
- Wheel geometry check: Improper wheel alignment can indicate suspension issues. Specialized devices measure and compare current parameters with factory norms.
- Assessment of component condition and connections: This stage determines the degree of wear for each part and its compliance with standards.
- Final report: After diagnostics, the specialist creates a detailed report on the suspension's condition, identifying issues and providing recommendations for resolution.
