Checking shock absorbers
1. Check the shock absorbers by rocking the car up and down. Examine shock-absorbers on presence of leak in the place specified by an arrow. Check up reliability of fastening of shock-absorbers.
2. Inspect the steering and suspension components for damage or deformation. Check the condition of the tie rod ends (A) and ball joints (IN).
3. Check steering gear boots for cracks and signs of hydraulic fluid leakage.
4. Check the stabilizer bar bushings.
5. Grab the wheel and try to shake it. If the free play is too high, the suspension and tie rod ball joints are probably worn out. Replace them.
Checking the anthers of the axle shafts
1. Spread the folds of the anthers with your fingers and inspect the anthers for cuts, cracks, or other damage.
2. Check the tightness of the clamps. Replace anthers if necessary.
