I've noticed that my Vauxhall Vivaro's suspension has become very stiff and it's causing a bumpy ride. What could be the possible causes of this issue and how can I fix it?
ReplyOne possible cause of this issue could be worn out or damaged shock absorbers. These are responsible for absorbing the impact of rough roads and bumps, so if they are damaged or worn out, it could result in a stiffer ride. I would recommend getting them checked and replaced if needed.
Another possibility could be an issue with the suspension bushings. These are small rubber or polyurethane components that help to absorb vibrations and keep the suspension system working smoothly. If these are worn out, it could result in a stiff ride. I would suggest getting them checked and replaced if needed.
Low or incorrect tyre pressure can also cause a stiff ride. Make sure to check your tyre pressure regularly and adjust it to the recommended levels for your vehicle. This can greatly improve the comfort of your ride.
