Thank you!

just a little side note. at 6years and 67000kms. pwede naman talagang worn out na yung shock absorber pero there is a lot of leeway here. case to vase basis lalo na road condition l, driving style or if madalas kayo loaded with weight. lots of cases na worn out shocks for less mileage pero kunwari kalye na japan di siguro ako magtataka kung ok pa shocks at 100t kms plus.

IMHO, ang shocks bihira masira in "one go" lang yan kasi. Most of the time, gradual deterioration sila hanggang obvious na obvious na (wala nang dampening ng movement ng springs, sabog/leaking na if fluid type, etc.).

Parang battery ba, pahina na ng pahina habang tumatagal until the point na ayaw na mag start.

Kahit madiagnose na ok pa yung shocks ng mga mekaniko sa shop, palagay ko, senyales na rin yan na nagsisimula na siyang bumigay. Problem nga lang dun yung domino effect niyan, (paunti-unti) sisirain na rin yung kain ng gulong, yung mga bushing, alignment, etc. as it progresses.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to consider replacing them na rin, even if pwede pa pagtiyagaan for now. Kung 6 years na medyo sulit na rin siguro?

My question is, how long before you replace the shock absorbers given the harsh condition of our roads here in the metro? Our car (mobilio) is already 6 years old with 67k odo reading.

Sometimes the culprit are the tires ... if they are a few years old, the rubber compound is not as good anymore ... they're not as flexible ...

The tires were just changed to Goodyear ATM2 last June 2022. The tires were manufactured 062022. June pa next PMS ko. Medyo matagal pa para masilip ng casa.
