Today went to proton SC to check on my steering problem.
They test drove my car, and could not determine the cause of the steering not return to center. Anyway..
They heard a kruk sound when my tires go over small potholes or other uneven stuff. suggested to check my suspension.
They lifted my car, and saw one absorber had leaked oil. Or dirt.[attachmentid=6113492]
The others had no noticeable leak.
The foreman said the front absorbers are Gas, so wont see any leak.
He told me the rear ones are hydraulic.
And they need to be changed every 5 years.
Total, they quoted me RM1300 to change all 4 absorbers.
Price below:
Shock absorber Rear RM 126 x 2pc
Strut Assy FR RM 195 x 2pc
Bump stopper FR RM 132 x 2pc
Bumpb stopper RR RM 108 x 2pc
Labour RM 95.40 x 2
You guys changed absorbers at proton?
Anyone changed to aftermarket? Any suggestions?
i searched thru the last 5 threads. so far i found that stock are KYB. and Grebber can be used. And the kluk sound is usually fixed by changing bump stopper.
If the absorbers have no oil in it, how the shaft move up and down? The foreman in the SC is really a PHD (permanent head damage). After so many years yes may be the absorbers have to be change, but his knowledge will make customers a laugh stock. Send your car to other places for a check bro They test drove my car, and could not determine the cause of the steering not return to center. Anyway..

There are many good absorbers now with a much lower price.
