Automobile shock absorber repair and maintenance tips knowledge

In order to make the frame and body vibration rapid decay, improve vehicle ride comfort and comfort, the vehicle suspension systems are generally equipped with shock absorbers, is currently widely used in the car is double-acting telescopic shock absorber. Automobile shock absorber is used in the process of wearing parts,Ignition Coils for sale shock absorbers work is good or bad, will directly affect the stability and other parts of the life of cars, so we should make the shock absorbers are often in good working condition.

The following methods can test the shock absorbers work is good. So cars on the road in poor condition after driving 10km road parking, touch shell shock absorber, if not hot enough, indicating no resistance inside the shock absorber, shock absorbers do not work. At this point, you can add the appropriate oil, then test, if the housing fever, shock absorbers, compared with an internal oil, should add enough oil; otherwise, indicating shock absorber failure; firmly press the bumper, and then release, If the car has a 2 to 3 times a jump, then the shock absorbers work well; when the car slowly driving and emergency braking, if the car more violent vibration, indicating a problem with the shock absorber; remove the shock absorber to be upright, and the lower end of the connecting ring clamp on the vise, pull compression damping lever several times, then there should be a stable resistance, pull up resistance should be greater than the resistance when the downward pressure, such as resistance to unstable or no resistance, may is short of oil inside the damper or valve damaged parts should be repaired or replaced parts. In determining the shock absorbers have a problem or failure, it should first check whether the shock absorber oil spills or traces of old oil spills.

 Seal gaskets, gasket rupture damaged oil storage cylinder head nut loose. May be oil seals, seal washers failure, should be replaced with new seals. If you still can not eliminate leakage, shock absorbers should be pulled out, if they feel there is no issuer or the severity of the moment, and further examination clearance between the piston and cylinder is too large, whether the damper piston rod bent piston rod cylinder surface and if there is scratched or pull marks. If there is no leakage phenomenon shock absorbers, shock absorbers should check the connection pins, connecting rods, connecting hole, rubber, bushings and other damage, sealing off, break or fall off place. If these were normal, it should be further decomposed shock absorbers, check with the gap between the piston and cylinder is too large cylinder with or without strain,M3 camber arms the valve seal is good, valves and valve seat are tight fitting and minus Zhen's done spring is too soft or broken, take grinding repair or replace parts of the way under the circumstances. In addition, the shock absorber in actual use will be issued by the sound of failure, which is mainly due to the shock absorbers and springs, frame or shaft collision damage or loss, and shock absorber pad dust tube deformation, oil lack of other causes, reasons should be identified, to be repaired. After the shock absorber during the inspection repair should be carried out in a special test bench performance test, when 1mm when resistance frequencies 100 ±, its resistance to stretching and compression stroke stroke shall comply with the provisions, indicating damper normal.

Modified version of the Audi A4 Test Drive

This is the standard sun, radiant, red figure who attracts the attention of the believers greed, coupled with the pressure relief valve that wonderful voice, from inside to outside people silly admiration.

Audi A4 as the entry-level luxury car, while both luxury and sport in one, the original already has a very good power, but the owner is not satisfied, but also to squander money to modification, really ...... really should be encouraged, otherwise we 'll see how this modification was so thoroughly A4 it?

Every man who has a greedy desire, this desire in addition to performance in terms of money and power, will be the performance of the car on his own, once occupied by sensory stimulation will each part of the body, and this desire would more addictive. So began intensified, his own unbridled lust pouring in car, after a few transformation, finally able to fruition.

Teach you how to buy their vehicles shock absorbers

Vehicle modification does not mean necessarily have the power to change is very large, but it is certainly contrary to the car to change it well apart and full security. To modify shock absorber, BMW e36 Shock absorber its meaning and not just drop the body seeking good-looking it!
The so-called shock absorber damping modification is actually put on the harder, better quality and can cooperate fully with the shock absorbers and springs, select a suitable set of shock absorbers are the most important to the comfort and handling of particularly difficult to achieve a compromise between. In fact, the chassis and suspension in fact, there is no absolute formula for follow, at most, the majority of people just approaching sensory design it! After all, different size, weight, type and even between models orientation absolutely nothing in common can be copied, and the so-called modified shock absorbers, but can not fully meet the needs of all consumers.
Functionally, the spring is mainly responsible for supporting the weight of the body, and to temporarily absorb, store the energy will cause shock. The role of shock absorber tube, that is, the use of shock absorber damping barrel of oil to the kinetic energy is converted into heat energy conversion, energy vibration suppression during spring compression. Simple in a word to describe the function of shock tube is used to catch the spring.
If fans suspension modification concept itself is nothing, it is best to choose the perfect suit manufacturers have with products,BMW E36 M3 Shock absorber to avoid errors with the problem. And in this type of shock absorber tube being inserted mostly on price, but what is good responsive prone to leakage of monocular type good? Or a long life but the shock reaction flat complex drum good? In fact, these have mainly based on the consumer's own purpose and sensory perception may be! Also in this price adjustable damping can also buy into the product, this can be expanded for use of space, while meeting the needs of the greater use of the product, but fans should pay attention to the amount of its service life, these are the fans making friends suspension should know before conversion.

Mathilda Racing now proves that you can pack the longitudinal dynamic perversion of a compact base even unsuspecting. Body / quality Only the front in factory R-Design-optics dissociates the sheet from the series look. The remaining procedures are owed ​​all the driving dynamics. An adaptive coilover KW lowers the building by 65 millimeters, 19-inch monitor Rial dress the wheel arches full frame, while behind a borrowed from the VW Scirocco R brake system doing its job.

Less visible, but clearly felt: the barrier of Drexler. Driving pleasure / drive Mathilda wraps the 380-hp kit of HGP with a modified turbocharger, transmitting freudigerer intake duct, large intercooler, stronger fuel pump and 76mm downpipe to the four-cylinder. The resulting 550 Nm processed an amplified DSG gearbox, the exhaust fountain a 76-mm-complete system. Much effort, but it also causes a lot. Instead of trotting as the series organ bloodless over the speed range, roars, snarls and pushes the tuned TSI now turbo in the best manner.
