Was in my Father's car with Dad, Mum, Grandma and Grandpa, Baby sister and I. When encountered a hump, the car came down with a "BOM" sound, nothing much really, but somehow i feel my heart pain uh ... Is it the Rear suspension reaching its limit? The car is a Colt Plus, even with Dad, Mum, Sister, Baby sister(baby chair) and I, also encounter same problem.. Help me clarify any doubts!

 

Thanks a million! [:)]

If this is an isolated occassion, maybe no damage done. Just go slow on hump next time, especially on full load.

 

However, you can also check for any signs of oil stains on shock absorbers. Oil stain is sign of leaked absorber.

Yes. The suspension travel has hit the maximum. It's like you compress the spring fully.

 

Nothing to worry. Your father car he never worry, why you worry?

Metal are strong...nothing will spoil.

Anyway, can it be the hump too high then hit the undercarriage?

Gas-filled shock-absorbers does leak, but no oil stain, just gas.

Better replace the worn shock absorbers before any accident due to it during emergency braking/wet road.
