Cardiff Suspension & Shock Absorbers
If every bump feels like a pothole or your steering seems off, your suspension system could be the reason. Skaza’s Automotive offers professional suspension repairs in Cardiff for all vehicle types, diagnosing and fixing issues with shock absorbers, struts, springs, and bushings. These parts wear out gradually, and if ignored, can reduce handling, affect braking, and lead to uneven tyre wear.
Our experienced technicians use premium parts to restore ride quality and ensure your vehicle stays stable on all types of roads. Whether you're dealing with a sagging corner, clunky noises, or just an uncomfortable drive, we’ll inspect your suspension system thoroughly and get it sorted quickly.

Fix the Faults You Can’t See
Your suspension system works hard behind the scenes, absorbing shock and keeping your tyres in contact with the road. When something’s not right, it affects more than just comfort — it puts safety and performance at risk.
- Detailed Inspections: We assess every part of your suspension system, including shocks, struts, bushings, and sway bars, to pinpoint the root cause of any issues.
- High-Quality Replacements: We only use reliable, long-lasting components to ensure you get the best performance and value from your repair.
- Improved Handling & Comfort: Once repaired, you’ll feel the difference immediately — smoother driving, tighter steering, and better grip.
- Preventative Advice: We’ll let you know if there are signs of early wear, helping you plan ahead and avoid future suspension-related costs.
A strong, stable suspension isn’t just about comfort — it’s what keeps your vehicle safe and responsive under pressure. Let us help you get that confident drive back.
What causes uneven tyre wear even after wheel alignments?
While alignment is a common cause, worn suspension components like shock absorbers or struts can also lead to uneven tyre wear. These parts help maintain consistent tyre contact with the road. If they’re worn, the tyres may bounce or shift excessively, leading to patchy wear patterns. Regular inspections are key to identifying and resolving the underlying cause.
How do I know if my shocks or struts need replacing?
Common signs include excessive bouncing after hitting a bump, nose-diving while braking, uneven tyre wear, clunking noises, or a general feeling of looseness while driving. In some cases, you may also notice visible fluid leaks on the shocks. These symptoms suggest worn or failing components that should be replaced to maintain safe handling.
Can suspension problems affect my braking distance?
Yes, they can. Worn suspension parts reduce tyre contact with the road and can shift weight unevenly during braking. This may increase your stopping distance, particularly in wet or uneven conditions. A healthy suspension helps maintain even braking pressure and ensures the vehicle responds predictably when stopping.
