Malaysian Roads and Suspension Wear
Malaysian roads from highways to potholed urban streets continuously stress Arteon suspension. Warning signs: floaty feel at highway speed, wallowing on bumps, knocking over sharp bumps, uneven tyre wear. At 4M Car Care we inspect full suspension geometry during alignment — catching worn bushings before secondary tyre or steering damage occurs.
