Suzuki Alto 2017 Shock Absorber

Genuine Suzuki Alto 2017 Shock Absorber

 Is your 2017 Suzuki Alto feeling “bouncy” or unstable when you hit a speed bump? Or perhaps the car “nose-dives” heavily when you step on the brakes? While the Alto is famous for its fuel economy, its safety and comfort depend entirely on the health of its suspension. At Taleon Autospares Kenya, we provide Genuine Ex-Japan Shock Absorbers that restore the firm, controlled, and quiet ride your car was designed for.

Why Your Alto Needs This Part: The Suzuki Alto is a lightweight vehicle, meaning its shock absorbers work overtime to keep the car steady against wind and road imperfections. In Kenya, potholes and constant speed bumps wear out the internal seals of standard shocks. Once the gas or oil pressure drops, your car loses its ability to “settle” after a bump, which increases your braking distance and puts extra stress on your tires and CV joints.

Key Features:

• Original Japanese Valving: These are OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) units. Unlike cheap aftermarket shocks that can be too stiff or too soft, these are perfectly calibrated for the HA36 chassis weight.

• Eliminate Road Noise: Designed to absorb small vibrations and “thumping” sounds, making your cabin significantly quieter on rough tarmac.

• Superior Road Grip: Keeps your tires firmly planted on the ground, reducing “wheel hop” and ensuring your steering remains responsive during emergency maneuvers.

• Ex-Japan Durability: Sourced from Japan’s low-mileage environment, these shocks offer original factory build quality that often outlasts brand-new generic alternatives.

Product Specifications:

• Vehicle Model: Suzuki Alto (2014–2021 / 8th Generation)

• Chassis Codes: HA36S / HA36V

• Part Type: Front / Rear Shock Absorber (Gas-Charged)

• Condition: Clean Ex-Japan (No leaks, high-rebound performance)

• Price: KSh 4,500 (Per piece)

Signs Your Shocks Are Failing:

1. Excessive Bouncing: The car bounces several times after hitting a bump instead of stabilizing immediately.

2. Visible Leaks: You see oily fluid misting or leaking down the body of the shock absorber.

3. Body Roll: The car leans excessively when taking corners or swaying in windy conditions.

4. Nose Diving: The front end dips significantly during braking, making the car feel “front-heavy.”

Why Buy From Taleon Autospares? Located on Kirinyaga Road, Nairobi, we are the trusted source for Alto owners who value quality. We understand that your car is a daily tool for business or family. That’s why we only stock “Clean” Ex-Japan parts that have been pressure-checked to ensure they are ready for thousands of kilometers of service.

Pro Tip: To ensure your car stays balanced and your tires wear evenly, we highly recommend replacing shock absorbers in pairs (Left and Right). Replacing only one side can cause uneven handling and put extra strain on other suspension components like your bushes and mountings.
