Additional Information About the Service
MacPherson struts are an essential part of the suspension system that ensures comfort and safety on the road. Over time, the shock absorbers in the struts lose their effectiveness, making replacement necessary. We offer high-quality MacPherson Strut Replacement so your car can smoothly and confidently handle any unevenness.
Diagnosis and Preparation for Replacement
Our specialists first carefully inspect the struts and related components - springs, dust boots, bump stops, upper mounts, and bearings. If any of these elements are also worn, we recommend replacing them along with the struts. This will help avoid reassembly in the future and ensure the longevity of the repair.
Replacement Process and Repair Options
During the work, we remove the wheels and carefully disassemble the strut along with the spring and upper mount. New shock absorbers are installed on the springs, after which the entire assembly is put back together. If the spring is in good condition, it can be retained, but the shock absorber should be replaced entirely - its properties cannot be restored. We also always replace the dust boots and bump stops to protect the new parts from dirt and debris.
Final Checks and Recommendations
After installing the new struts, we always check the alignment. This is important to ensure the wheels are properly positioned and the car doesn’t pull to one side. We recommend replacing shock absorbers in pairs to ensure the suspension works evenly and to avoid imbalance. This approach guarantees safety and comfort while driving.
