Am I in correct thread?

I'm driving wira a/b 1.3 since 2001 until now, the front absorber is original stock and never changed before until today... . Not sure what brand is the original stock. Recently I felt got sound when go over the hump and maybe
is time to change after 10 years!

I have read many thread about various brand absorber and quite confuse which is the best I should choose.
Some say Monroe Sensa-trax, APM, SACHS and many more...

Sifus, can you help and advise me what I need to know.

Should I buy it directly from Spare Parts shop which is more cheaper than go to Car workshop?

I need comfort ride only, no racing, no cornering but wanted to try lowered the car but scared will cause problem
later to drive shaft. Is it true?

you say got sound. is it sound the tyre hit the inside of car? coz worn out stabiliser bar bushing will also make sound when go over hump, tie end rod also can make sound, tulang anjing (dunno what it called ) also can make sound.

what i'm saying is better check it properly, don't want after you change the abs but still got sound.

using Waja spring will make the gap at your tyre bigger. mine 1.6 running on 14" rim gap is 5 fingers. yours 1.3 i'll presume will be much more fingers.

^Rm390 is quite cheap.... Front pair also cost me rm230 already...
Anyway, if nothing wrong with the spring, why you want to change it and make your car higher?

i think one member is selling SACHS in automotive section.. u can search for kobe

higher = stable meh ? lolx..

if ur spring d used more than 5-6 years.. then ma change sekali lor..since u paying for labour d..

get APM OEM one ok d...

heard my name...wahaha.... Use HD spring la. stiffer then OEM but remain the same height.

im using kayaba absorbers for my dad's 14 yrs old wira.. feel comfort and nice but not lowered one.. it cost me about 400 for front and rear including workmanship.. but if u want to lower your car, you can change the stock springs to sports spring..
i used to go one under the tree mechanic in old klang road, next to pearl point.. very nice guy with best svc and cheap price.. been servicing the wira with him for 4 yrs..

may I know where did you get the kayaba absorber from ?

My mech get for me bro.. and i replaced it few years ago and now its soft ready.. now planning to get sachs abs from LYN member's shop..

Thanks bro, same mechanic under the tree ? Can you share the shop name ?
