Question on new car's suspension system.

**niky** · November 19th, 2007 11:12 AM

Or a vehicle with no suspension at all... like a Crosswind.

We have horrible roads. My cousin had to get new shocks for his Corolla, another had to replace a heck of a lot of stuff (bushings, CV Joints, etcetera) on his Civic, and I needed a new ball joint (from one great whack at a pothole) on the Lynx RS. On my previous Sentra (which was sold with about the same mileager as the RS), we replaced shocks, rear bushings (and a whole f***ing axle), CV joints and bearings. All of these cars have between 70,000 - 90,000 kms on them.

Sa Crosswind, at 120,000 kms, wala pa... but it's nowhere near as comfortable as any of the above...

Meron po ba kayong recommended auto shops na nagchecheck at nagpapalit ng suspension?

sa lancer GLXi 93/94 model ko eh yung power steering rack ends ang unang
nagkaroon ng play, as in lumalagatok kapag nalubak. Pinalitan ko ng OEM, di rin tumagal, hanap ako ng 555 na japan, ayun di na nagluko.

I presume that suspension system for a new car (bushings etc.) should last for more than a year. We can therefore claim for warranty on kalampags and suspension problems if any arise during the first year. Right?

Thanks for the responses tsikoteers!

You can try Speedyfix, Cruven or Zee. Speedyfix is located in Shaw Blvd near pure Gold. Cruven has several branches. They have a webpage so you can google them. Never tried Zee but suposed to be at par with Cruven. Heard they are located in Aurora Blvd.
