The shock absorber is used to suppress the shock when the spring bounces after absorbing the shock and the impact from the road surface, so that the body can drive more smoothly (small roll). But if the shock absorber of a car suddenly leaks, what is the impact of the shock absorber and what should be done after the leak?
If the shock absorber leaks oil at the beginning, it will not have a big impact, and the shock absorber will leak slowly. But over time, lack of oil will cause the shock absorber to be undamped. The shaking (rolling) of the vehicle is obvious when the vehicle is driving, and when it encounters some pit openings, the wheels will make a "bang" collision sound, which will cause great damage to the vehicle's suspension. When the shock absorber leaks, it should be dealt with as soon as possible.
If the shock absorption system (consisting of springs and shock absorbers) only leaks oil, only the shock absorber needs to be replaced instead of the car springs. Secondly, car springs basically do not need to be replaced, because they are not vulnerable like shock absorbers. However, if the spring is found to have obvious cracks and deformation, it must be replaced in time, otherwise there will be a certain safety hazard.
