They are responsible for your vehicle’s smooth drive over bumpy or uneven roads and are an essential part of your suspension system.
Symptoms of a malfunctioning shock absorber
If your car is providing uncomfortable ride quality and is bouncing excessively, it could be that your shock absorbers aren’t operating correctly. Also, any puddles of oil-like fluid on the road around your wheels could be escaping from leaking shock absorbers.

Highly efficient, prompt customer service and the price for the MOT was half of what I normally pay.
