How often should you change your rear shocks?
every 50,000 to 100,000 miles
The general recommendation is that shocks and struts should be replaced every 50,000 to 100,000 miles. Here are some factors to help you determine if it’s time to replace your shocks and struts.
How can you tell if your rear shock absorbers need replacing?
Audible signs or wear are a rapid, dull thumping sound. This noise is the sound of the tyre whacking up and down on the road. It’s not the actual shock itself) Other noises to listen out for are knocks and rattles which could indicate shock bushes or other suspension bushes probably need replacement.
How do you check for bad shocks?
The “bounce test” requires some effort. Go to one corner of the car and push down. When you let go, the car should bounce up, then settle back to at-rest height. If the car bounces more than twice, you most likely need new shocks.
How much does it cost to replace rear shocks?
The cost to replace shocks is going to be slightly less than struts since they are generally not as complicated as struts. The average total cost to replace a pair of shocks will run about $250 to $580. An individual shock absorber will cost around $50 to $140 so parts alone will set you back between $100 and $280.
How do you test rear shock absorbers?
The usual way to test a shock absorber is to push down on a corner of the vehicle a few times to get it to bounce and then stop pushing and see how much it continues to bounce before stopping. A good shock absorber should stop the bouncing right away.
