Hi - does anyone have any ideas before i spend any money please.
F500 TA 105 2014 (48,000 miles) owned since new so i know that its on original front shockers.
Just lately and perhaps for a long time but its been progressive the front suspension feels rubbish. It crashes and bangs over speed bumps (taken slowly) almost as if the suspension is too hard or that there is little or no damping.
Its a lounge not an 'S' but i'm not even sure if the 'S' meant harder sports suspension, i thought it was just a trim level.
Does anyone have experience of dampers failing, do they get stiffer? I would have thought that a failing damper would get less dampy and more floppy.
I thinking that i should perhaps replace the dampers (and springs whilst i'm there) in an effort to get a better ride.
If we think dampers are the cause are there any recommended replacements to go for please?
