Oil Leak sa Shock Absorber

[kizsleg]

Hi guys,

Ask ko lang kun ano problema ng auto ko. Kakabili ko lang last month nito 97 civic VTI. First car ko to kaya la pa masyado alam sa sasakyan.
Kagabi kasi while driving, medyo napansin ko na parang maalog yun sasakyan, parang flat tire ang pakiramdam ko, naka ilan stop over pa ako para mag check ng tire. Tiningnan ko ngayon umaga at meron ako nakita Oil Leaks sa rear shock absorber.



Ask lang po sana ako advice. And kun magkano kaya magagastos ko paayos. Thanks

^tama si boss.

or if you have the budget, since i think 2nd hand yung car, mas maganda to change all shocks and pacheck mo narin yung ilalim para gumanda ang ride quality.

yup, im planning to change all shocks nalang siguro, natatakot kasi gf ko, di daw ako smooth mag drive. sanay kasi sya sa good condition company cars. since im a new driver and eto pa lang na drive ko na car eh di ko lam ang good ride quality. try ko nalang i drive newer car models ng mga relatives ko to see the difference.

I checked some threads and nabasa ko na ok daw yun kayaba? Alin kaya mas ok ng restoration ng stock shocks or KYB?

Sir Go for bnew KYB (kayaba) shocks na lang kesa restoration. Di din naman nagkakalayo yung price. Sa Motorist Banawe (sa may erod side) ako bumibili ng suspension parts kasi mura, dun din bumibili yung mga talyer ng parts. Pansin mo puro mga naka motor yung bumibili sakanila.

Go for brand new shocks kung indi naman kalayuan ng presyo sa restoration.. besides 15 yrs old na rin yang shock mo if ayan pa yung stock ha. it has served its purpose well, time for it to rest.

kano kaya abutin pag palit yun shock and lowering springs 1.5 drop? yun budget friendly lang na lowering springs. lowered kasi to and putol yun spring which i read had many disadvantages. ano pa ba dapat palitan sa suspension? Gusto ko kasi good condition talaga yun car.

Repaired shocks will fail again shortly. You would be better off with a brand new replacement pair of shocks.

KYB is a good brand that is not too expensive.

thanks sa mga inputs mga sir. shocks and spring lang muna siguro ako. bibili pa din kasi ako 2 tires.
nag inquire ako kay SanNiSan thru text from sulit and 9.6k for the Excel-G and 8k for spring.
Di pa nya ko ni-rreplyan kun ano brand. Ano sa tingin nyo yun 8k na yun? Coil Over na kaya yun? Gusto ko sana adjustable. Di ko pa kasi alam looks ng 1.5 and 2 inches drop.

Don't use your cut springs anymore. Also go for KYB para bidget meals lang. Canvass Canvass ka rin. If my memorry serves me right, almost 10k lang ata inabot sakin for all 4 shocks. Tapos kuha ka nalang ng 2nd hand na lowering springs (kung limited budget and you still like it lowered).

Maganda isipin mo muna wat you want to do sa kotse mo.. Para tama lahat ng papalitan like if mag mags ka what size? comfort ba priority or porma?

Also don't go for coilover sleeves. If you want adjustable, go for full coilovers.. ipon nalang.. Or settle with lowering springs Kasi pag full coilovers, shocks and springs na yun. For EK body i believe mga 35k and whole kit.

Yes sir, di ko na talaga gagamitin yun cut springs. Ahh, so 9.6k for 4 Excel-G shocks is a good deal? Stock VTI mags lang ako, ok na sakin yun, pa buff ko na lang. Di ko masyado habol ang porma, basta lowered lang ayos na sakin, I like it lowered coz im a small guy.

Ilan inches drop kaya need ko spring if gusto ko ma attain yun current height ng car ko. 7 inches po yun gap ng side skirt ko ngayon sa ground, 6 inches yun front bumper.
