Suspension

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Phill Coleman, Sep 4, 2003.

  1. Hi all

    I am running a 95 Volvo 460 2.0 CD. The problem that I am having is that
    every time I go over a speed bump, the car scraps them. I am knackering up
    the exhaust and underside of the car. The car has been into the garage and
    they can't find anything wrong with the suspension.

    Has anyone got any ideas on how I can solve this problem?

    Many thanks

    Phill

    Sue your local council for having ridiculously oversized speedbumps, or make
    sure you have tyres on those wheels.

    Most likely to be springs/shockers getting weak and in need of replacement.

    Cheers, Peter.

    Is on of the rubbers holding the exhaust pip up broken?

    Are they all there?

    Legally speed bumps can be no more than 10cm hiegher than the road surface.
    What hangs low under you car?
