my non-vios' shocks were replaced on its 8th (or is it 9th?) year, because the car was already dribbling after a hump.
my son drives it over smooth and rough roads alike, as if his tail was on fire.
i am confident, if i were the sole driver, them shocks would be over 10 years old and still be good.
bottomline, i don't believe in pms for shocks.
