The Warning Signs Of Worn Shocks And Struts
The movement may be slight, but you notice it. Vehicle “tips” to one side in turns. When taking a sharp turn or an off-ramp, your vehicle leans or “tips” to the outside of the turn and feels wobbly. The front end dives more than expected during hard braking.

By not doing it’s job – absorbing the shock – not having them replaced can lead to damage in the ball joints, wheel hubs, and many other components of the suspension. Without something to absorb the shock and energy of hitting a bump, it spreads throughout your Aston Martin and will lead to damage

Like all other automobile parts and systems, shocks and struts have a specific maintenance schedule. Auto repair experts say that generally they should be replaced between every 50,000 to 100,000 miles, depending on how much wear and tear they have received.

The components within a shock absorber are made of metal, rubber and plastic, all of which eventually degrade through extended use, extreme heat, and adverse road and weather conditions.

One way to test the condition of the shocks and struts of your Aston Martin is to push down hard on each corner of a vehicle. If the vehicle continues to bounce after you let go, your shocks need replacing.
