At Reynolds of Selby in North Yorkshire, we specialise in suspension repair and replacement services to ensure your vehicle’s handling, safety, and comfort. Your car’s suspension system is essential for smooth driving, absorbing shocks, maintaining traction, and providing stability while on the road. Whether you’re dealing with worn shock absorbers, broken springs, or damaged struts, our experienced technicians have the expertise and high-quality parts needed to keep your suspension in optimal condition.
Importance of Maintaining Your Suspension System
A well-maintained suspension system is crucial for safe and comfortable driving. The suspension system connects your vehicle to its wheels, providing stability and cushioning to reduce the impact of bumps, potholes, and uneven road surfaces. When the suspension is compromised, it can affect your car’s handling, braking efficiency, and tyre wear, putting both your comfort and safety at risk. Regular suspension checks and timely repairs ensure you maintain control, especially during sharp turns or emergency stops, while also preserving the longevity of other components, such as tyres and steering systems.
Signs You May Need Suspension Repair or Replacement
There are several signs that your suspension may need attention, and catching these early can prevent further damage:
Bumpy or Rough Ride: If you feel every bump on the road, your shocks or struts may be worn or damaged.
Vehicle Drifting or Pulling: Poor alignment, often linked to suspension issues, can cause your car to drift to one side, making it difficult to drive in a straight line.
Uneven Tyre Wear: A failing suspension system can lead to uneven tyre wear, which reduces tyre lifespan and affects safety.
Leaking Fluid: Shock absorbers and struts contain fluid that helps absorb road impact. If you notice fluid leaks, it’s a sign these components need repair or replacement.
Dipping or Nose-Diving When Braking: If your car dips forward when braking, it may indicate worn shocks or struts.
Unusual Noises: Clunking, squeaking, or rattling noises when driving over bumps or turning corners could signal damaged suspension parts.
Our Suspension Repair and Replacement Services
At Reynolds of Selby, we provide a full range of suspension services, including diagnostics, repair, and replacement of key components such as shock absorbers, struts, springs, and control arms. Our skilled technicians use high-quality parts and the latest equipment to deliver reliable, long-lasting results.
1. Comprehensive Suspension Inspection
We begin with a thorough inspection of your vehicle’s suspension system, assessing components like shocks, struts, springs, control arms, and bushings. Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to identify worn or damaged parts, ensuring an accurate diagnosis.
2. Shock Absorber and Strut Replacement
Shock absorbers and struts play a critical role in stabilising your vehicle, providing a smooth and safe ride. If these components are worn or leaking, we offer precise shock absorber and strut replacements with high-quality parts that match your vehicle’s specifications, restoring comfort and handling.
3. Spring Replacement
Suspension springs support the vehicle's weight, absorb bumps, and maintain proper height and stability. Broken or sagging springs can compromise your vehicle’s alignment and handling. Our technicians can replace coil springs and leaf springs, depending on your vehicle’s suspension type, improving stability and comfort.
4. Control Arm and Bushing Replacement
Control arms and bushings are essential for maintaining wheel alignment and smooth suspension movement. Damaged control arms or worn bushings can lead to poor handling, excessive vibration, and uneven tyre wear. Our suspension repair service includes control arm and bushing replacement to keep your car’s wheels aligned and its ride smooth.
5. Sway Bar Link Replacement
The sway bar links stabilise the car’s suspension and reduce body roll during turns. Damaged or worn sway bar links can affect handling, causing your car to feel less stable. We inspect and replace sway bar links when necessary, ensuring safe cornering and enhanced control.
6. Wheel Alignment
After suspension repairs or replacements, we perform precise wheel alignment to ensure your tyres make proper contact with the road and wear evenly. Proper alignment improves fuel efficiency, extends tyre life, and enhances overall vehicle performance.
