The spring is the one bearing the weight of the car. If the ride height becomes too low when you put passengers in (with the car parked), the springs may have sagged and probably needs replacing. This is normal because they wear out and sag over time. Some springs, even on the same car, wear down faster than the others, most likely due to imbalanced loading of the car throughout its life. That's why you see some 10-20 year old or older cars with uneven ride height from left to right or front to rear. This is aside those cars who encountered an accident that put their suspension out of whack.
The work of the shock absorbers or dampers is not to carry the weight of the car, per se, but to dampen the tendency of the spring to bounce. So if you find your car bouncy, the dampers may need replacing as well.
Now, if you combine the two factors (sagging spring + worn-out damper), you'll be hitting the bump-stops (or your tires touching the fender liners) more often when you fill the car to capacity, even on a relatively level road.

January 11th, 2010 11:43 AM #5salamat mga sir! i think i need to replace springs and shocks na. sobrang bagsak tlga kahit isang tao lang naka sakay saka sumasayad na gulong pag nalubak o humps pag may sakay.
another question sir oj:
what will be the best move in this case?
**change springs first then monitor then pag bagsak/sayad pa rin change shocks?
OR
**change shocks/dampers first then monitor then pag bagsak/sayad pa rin change springs?
OR
**sure na sira na yung shocks and springs so better yet change shocks and springs at the same time?
***i am planning to buy a surplus/used shocks and springs. ok lang ba ang ganito since trusted ko naman pagbibilan ko. kaizen service center, they offer fresh surplus products...
here's their link...

I had the same problem before.. but that was after 6 years when I installed my neuspeed lowering springs. Pag may sakay ako ramdam ko na ung tagtag nung auto parang wala nang laro ung springs... so I decided to put back my stock springs sa likod.. problem solved! sobrang lumambot na pala ung lowering springs ko kaya bagsak ung likod ko... bili ka lang muna ng springs.. malalaman mo naman kung sira na ung shocks pag kinabit na nila ung springs mo.. itetest naman nila yun bago ikabit... para atleast hindi sayang ung pag bili mo kung buo pa naman ung orig shocks mo..
As long as it is valid, bring a printed copy. Then, they will ask you to use one of the PCs there...
