shock absorbers
 

I have a 98 Toyota Camry LE V6, which is having a problem that i've been facing since a few days. When I take the car on bad roads, I could actually feel the shocks inside heavily. I'm not sure whether this is a problem with the shock absorbers or something else. How do I find it? Will this problem creep in because of low air pressure in tires or is it a genuine problem with the shock absorbers itself? Pls help me.

Can you define what you mean by feeling the shocks?

I meant it's quiet jerky inside the car when traveling on bad roads

Get the body oscillating up and down then release. If the car stops bouncing after 1 1/2 cycles the shocks are OK. Check the upper part of the shock for excess oil leakage. Some minor oil film is OK.

On very bumpy roads the car can feel as if it will shake apart.

CAMRY 97 here It may not relate to the problem but what I have is strange noise going on on the back of the car when riding on the rough roads. Almost like wore out blocks that have to do with suspension. Is there anything in camry 97 that could have to be changed that makes that noise???

The tiny fiber-like protrusions are made up of interlocking protein segments in a tightly coiled helix shape, like a seven-nanometer-wide Slinky toy. The researchers found that under force, the fimbriae stretch to many times their original length as the protein segments uncoil one by one. If the force on them drops, the fimbriae coils are compressed, keeping tension on the bond between the bacterium and the mucous membrane.his system is similar to a set of shock absorbers on your car that dampen turbulent forces caused by bumpy road conditions.
