Suspension & Steering
Suspension and steering repairs in Stapleford
Springs, shock absorbers, bushes, wheel bearings, CV joints and power steering, diagnosed properly and fixed for good.
Signs your suspension or steering needs a look
Suspension and steering parts wear slowly, so it’s easy to stop noticing the knocks and the vague feel. If any of the signs below sound familiar, bring the car in. We’ll find what’s worn, show you, and give you a price before any work starts.

Knocks and clunks
A knock over speed bumps or potholes usually points to worn drop links, bushes, ball joints or a broken spring.
Pulling or wandering
If the car drifts or the steering feels vague, it may be worn track rod ends, worn bushes or alignment that’s out.
Clicking on full lock
A clicking noise when turning tightly is a classic sign of a worn CV joint. It’s best replaced before the driveshaft fails.
Humming or droning
A hum that gets louder with speed is often a wheel bearing on its way out.
Heavy or noisy steering
Stiff steering, whining or fluid leaks can mean a problem with the power steering pump, rack or pipes.
Bouncy ride or uneven tyre wear
Tired shock absorbers make the car float and bounce, and can wear your tyres unevenly.
Suspension and steering are part of your MOT
Worn suspension and steering parts are a common reason for MOT failures and advisories. If your MOT has flagged anything, bring us the sheet and we’ll price up the repair. Car and light van MOTs are £49.95.
