Examination
The shock absorber can be checked by hand. However, shock absorbers are precisely checked on a shock tester or on a test bench.
Remove shock absorber.
Holding the shock absorber in the installation position, stretch and compress it.
The shock absorber must move evenly and with the same force throughout the piston stroke.
In normal operation, small traces of fluid are not a reason to replace the shock absorber.
In case of severe fluid leakage, replace the shock absorber.
