As for such a service as running system diagnostics, it should be done every 10 thousand kilometers, regardless of the type and prestige of your iron friend.

The diagnosed part of the car (in our case, it is the suspension) not only performs the function of comfortable movement, but also directly affects driving safety, taking on enormous loads while driving. It is also important to remember that if your iron friend began to creak and knock more in the area of \u200b\u200bthe bridges, and the tire tread is simply eaten up, you know, it's time to go to the service station.

Many car owners often identify the breakdown themselves. Self-diagnosis of the running gear will definitely not harm your iron friend, but on one condition - if you have experience in such a business and are 100 percent sure of your actions. If you do not want to spend personal time identifying breakdowns or are afraid to harm the car, seek help from specialists. In the service center or car repair shop you will be provided with a full range of services using special technical and computer equipment. This is how high-quality running diagnostics are made.

As for cars aged 8 years or more, their chassis diagnostics are carried out according to a special program. The whole process, from identifying problems to replacing the necessary parts, is carried out in accordance with all the requirements and recommendations of the automaker. In addition, many services use a special diagnostic program that allows you to identify a malfunction in a matter of minutes. Thus, at the service station you save your personal time as much as possible.

In any case, contacting a service center gives you a 100% guarantee that the repair and diagnostics of the chassis will be carried out with high quality. By entrusting your iron friend to the hands of specialists, you will no longerfear for the safety of the next 10 thousand kilometers.

The most expensive is the replacement of the hub - you will have to pay at least 1800 rubles for it.
