Tank Clutched March 22, 2013 Share March 22, 2013 recently whenever I am going over a hump, esp with people in the back seat, the undercarriage would be hit. seems that the suspension or shock absorbers is too soft. I have replaced all four shock absorbers but problem still around. should I change the spring/suspension so that the car is not so bouncy? btw, I am driving a 2007 Camry 2.4 ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you did not lower your car then maybe time for you to replace your suspension. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xers007 Supercharged March 23, 2013 Share March 23, 2013 stock camry shouldn't have such problem... should be the spring gone case... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Clutched March 23, 2013 Author Share March 23, 2013 Replaced the shock absorbers with stock models and did nothing to lower car. I guess the suspension springs needs to be replaced. Thanks for all the advice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyklon 5th Gear March 23, 2013 Share March 23, 2013 Stock camry is already very soft. After driving for a while, it get too soft and you will have this problem. Mine started having this issue after about 40-50k km. It doesn't happen at every hump, but just some of the higher humps, especially some at mscp or the one at the ex-budget terminal.

Deckbuild 6th Gear March 23, 2013 Share March 23, 2013 Did you change to a smaller diameter tyre? That could be the cause as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift_lock 1st Gear March 23, 2013 Share March 23, 2013 Are your tyres pumped to the correct pressure? Last time my car also hit the hump when go over because tyre pressure very low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Clutched March 23, 2013 Author Share March 23, 2013 no changes to wheel size or any other alterations. I guess it's the stock suspension that is going even softer after all the mileage. anyone know of a good workshop to get the suspension coil replaced?? Thanks.

Or get yr rear passengers to go on a diet. Another reason is u go over e humps too fast. Go slow over e humps lah. Ty r there to make u slow down. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
