Mazda 6 - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda 6 GG, MK 1 - Years 2002-2008
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: Car shock absorber replacement

The shock absorbers have the task of slowing down the suspension movements. If the car has traveled many kilometers, they must be replaced. You can easily find them in an auto parts shop. The replacement work is quite complex but can still be done on your own, so you don't go to the mechanic and save money. The guide shows how to replace them. It is necessary to have a compressor, or, alternatively, it is possible to use a pneumatic gun, a spring tensioner and finally a jack. Once all the bolts have been unscrewed, the wheel can be removed. Next it is necessary to open the hood and remove all the screws that you will find above the shock absorber support. Then it is also necessary to remove the two screws located on the spindle and the one positioned on the stabilizer, which runs parallel to the "affected" shock absorber. The shock will go away so easily.
