Suspension repair in Ireland

Knocks over bumps, a bouncy or crashy ride, uneven tyre wear or the car pulling and diving can all point to worn suspension. It affects comfort, handling and braking — and is a common NCT failure.

What's involved

A garage inspects shock absorbers, springs, bushes, ball joints and links, and replaces what's worn. Suspension is safety-related, so it's worth fixing promptly and checking alignment afterwards.

Suspension repair — questions

What are signs of worn suspension?

Knocking over bumps, a bouncy or harsh ride, uneven tyre wear, or the car pulling and diving under braking.

Is worn suspension an NCT failure?

It can be — worn shocks, springs and joints are common failure points.

Should alignment be checked after suspension work?

Yes — replacing suspension parts can change the geometry, so an alignment check is wise.
