Rear Strut Assembly Check
S3RH0A2306008
1) Inspect strut for oil leakage. If strut is found faulty,
replace it as an assembly unit, because it can not be
disassembled.
2) Strut function check
Check and adjust tire pressure as specified. Bounce
vehicle body three or four times continuously by
pushing rear end on the side with strut to be
checked. Apply the same amount of force at each
push and note strut resistance both when pushed
and rebounding.
Also, note how many times vehicle body rebounds
before coming to stop after hands are off. Do the
same for strut on the other side.
Compare strut resistance and number of rebound on
the right with those on the left. And they must be
equal in both. With proper strut, vehicle body should
come to stop the moment hands are off or after only
one or two small rebounds. If struts are suspected,
compare them with known-good vehicle or strut.
3) Inspect for damage or deformation.
4) Inspect for abnormal noise.
5) Inspect for cracks or deformation in spring seat.
6) Inspect for deterioration of bump stopper.
7) Inspect strut support for wear, cracks or deformation.
Replace any defective part.
