Suspension — Malaysian Road Stress
Malaysia's road surface quality varies dramatically — from smooth highways to pothole-heavy city roads. Proton shock absorbers typically last 60,000–80,000 km in Malaysian conditions. Signs of worn shocks: excessive bounce after speed bumps, body roll in corners, longer braking distance. Proton Service Centres stock OEM shocks; aftermarket alternatives (KYB, Monroe) are available at independent workshops at 30–50% savings. Always replace in axle pairs.
