Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs my car needs suspension repairs?
Common signs include a bumpy or bouncy ride, the car pulling to one side, unusual noises like clunking or knocking over bumps, uneven tyre wear, or the vehicle nose-diving when braking. If any of these sound familiar, call us on (03) 5278 8595 and we'll take a look.
What does a suspension inspection involve?
We check key components including shock absorbers, struts, springs, bushes and control arms for wear, damage or leaks, and test how your vehicle handles and responds to bumps and cornering. This helps us identify exactly what's causing the issue before recommending any work. Book a suspension check with our team today.
How often should suspension be checked?
Most manufacturers recommend having your suspension inspected at every logbook service, but it's worth having it checked sooner if you've noticed a change in how your car rides or handles, or after hitting a significant pothole or kerb. Get in touch if you're due for a check.
Can worn suspension affect other parts of my car?
Yes. Worn shock absorbers or struts can accelerate tyre wear, put extra strain on your braking system, and reduce overall vehicle control, particularly in wet or uneven conditions. Catching it early helps avoid flow-on damage to other components. Contact our team to have it assessed.
How much do suspension repairs cost?
The cost depends on which components need attention and the make and model of your vehicle. We always provide a clear, upfront quote before any work begins, so you know exactly what to expect. Call (03) 5278 8595 for an obligation-free quote.
Does towing or off-road driving wear out suspension faster?
Yes, regular towing, touring or off-road use puts extra load and stress on suspension components, particularly on 4WDs, and can shorten their lifespan compared to standard city driving. If you tow or tour regularly, it's worth having your suspension checked more often. Book your inspection today to keep your vehicle handling safely.
Testimonials
What Our Customers Say
Absolute magicians here. Took my car to 3 different mechanics who couldn't diagnose and thus fix an issue I was having with my Ford Fiesta. I gave up after the 3rd and just put up with it for quite some time. Brought my car here on a whim — they noticed it was running a little rough, did some diagnostic testing and found the problem. The bill only came to $150. I feel like this is the definition of excellent customer service, they went above and beyond, didn't try to rip me off and had the issue fixed promptly without a fuss. Very happy and grateful customer here.
North Geelong Automotive provided an exceptional experience! Their team was incredibly honest, fair, and a pleasure to work with. They offered transparent pricing, thorough service, and genuine care for my vehicle. Highly recommend for anyone seeking reliable and friendly automotive care in Geelong.
Starter motor went in my Landcruiser, 300km from home. North Geelong Automotive fitted me in the next day and got me on my way. Didn't rip me off and good people to deal with. Highly recommend.
My husband and I could not rate North Geelong Automotive Services more highly if we tried. Hilary kindly stayed back on a Saturday to thoroughly inspect our vehicle and address its recent deficits. He was incredibly diligent in his work, and his services were very reasonably priced. Its just a shame we do not live in the area — we would absolutely be transferring to North Geelong Automotive services if we could!
Driving to Geelong from the other side of the bay on a Saturday morning I ended up having the fuel filter light coming up on my dash. Hilary accepted to take my car in and drain and change the filter on top of his other commitments that day. The service was good, I was grateful I found somebody who cared and was willing to help. The whole thing cost me $150 which was a fair price. Thank you for the last minute Saturday morning help Hilary, that's been very much appreciated.
The crew at North Geelong Automotive were amazing! They got my car in as soon as possible as it was an urgent matter and fixed my car the same day of it being booked in. They were fast and efficient, would highly recommend going here.
North Geelong Automotive were absolutely fantastic. I had my car towed into their workshop and they immediately started diagnosing my car for faults. They were extremely informative on what discoveries they made and also let me know if anything was going to take longer or cost more. I'll definitely be coming back to North Geelong Automotive in the future.
Hilary went out of his way to have my 2011 VW Jetta repaired by replacing the cracked brake vacuum pipes for my daughter. Much appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate recommending them.
