kesian TS bought an abuse used Vios.

Kek... UWM
Better get OEM liek this

2 things here

1. you're not supposed to go through speed bumps at 30-40KM/H
2. parts today isn't as good as last time anymore

i also recently change my rear absorber bushing because got metal clanking sound...turns out it's the rear mounting bushing since there is no visible damage at all(absorber still works as intended)

U bought used? Haiyo should have ask mechanic check properly. Your vios maybe previous owner use inside kebun

driver and passenger brapa BMI

1st owner probably used as workhorse car carrying heavy stuff in the boot is woso possible.

Coz i used my old honda kity as workhorse woso. carry heavy2 big carton of those drinks for my vending machine part time biz.

Bushing and mount woso can gg faster.

i'm not sure how does this work?
the round rubber thingy should be mounted to chassis one. it was glued on it or what?

How much does it cost to replace for this vios?

Myvi Ori can range from rm 130 for cap ayam to rm 300 for Ori.

so many suspension issues, the previous owner drove it like land cruiser masuk hutan ka?

rubber will disintegrate over time due to many factors

the rubber is between the chassis and the absorber, absorbing much of the impact and load
the material and quality of the rubber will determine how long it last

Get silicone mounting and bushing.
Anyway, not expansive.
Btw it is top part and can diy.
Gao dim.

the absorber is bolted to the rubber.
i dont understand how they fix the rubber to the chassis, i didn't see bolts.
it is glued to the chassis? it cant be like this.

Y'all comprehension fail?

Where in the blue hell did TS say it's a used car? Tiba2 1st owner this 1st owner that. Fools living in a fantasy.

Lubricate caliper pin see if thats work

Its always trial and error until you find the source
