When your car has covered many miles, it becomes necessary to replace the shock absorbers, which serve to dampen the vehicle's bumps and enhance safety while cornering. This guide provides all the useful instructions on how to replace them yourself, saving significant amounts of money.

You will need a power tool, a jack, and a spring compressor. Remove the wheel and all four bolts located above the shock absorber.

The shock absorber will then come out on its own, allowing you to fit the new one in the same position as the removed unit.
