| Checking shock absorber |
| During vehicle operation, defective shock absorbers cause knocking noises and must be renewed. Shock absorbers are maintenance-free. Replacement is not necessary in the case of slight traces of oil on the shock absorber. In the case of major oil loss, the shock absorbers can be abruptly compressed and/or extended. Shock absorber oil cannot be topped up. |
