    Hello mga sirs, I'm kinda new in the automotive world. Using my moms 1995 Honda civic,been through a lot. 200k miles na ang natatahak. Anyways, when I'm doing 40 on the streets, it feels a lot more. I mean that I feel every little thing! A small rock, a tiny dent on the road, etc. Hindi na siya smooth mag ride, and I know siguro nga dahil may katandaan na ung kotse. Mabuti pa ung mga taxi na nasasakyan ko minsan kapag hindi available ung car ko for using, ang smooth ng takbo. ung mga lubak lubak, hindi nayayanig ung pakiramdam ko, but with out car, pag may konting lubak, I really need to slow down para lang hindi ako maintensity 7! Anyways, any insights? Don't know it it's the tires, the suspension, i don't have a clue. Since halos ako na ang gumagamit nito, at pag bumili ng bagong car si inay, I'd like to make it as comfy as it can be.

    Thanks!
    Jeff

    I would think your springs and shock absorbers would be in need of replacement.

    Also check the rubber bushings and joints if they are worn out and require replacement as well.

    dalhin mo sa kilala mong magaling na mekaniko, check shock absorber at mga pang ilalim like ball joint, tie rod, rack end, stabilizer link and other bushings.

Doing 40, feels like 120!
