Worn shock absorbers cause which problem?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Poor road holding and longer braking
- Step 1: Dampers keep the tyres on the road. Step 2. A bouncing wheel brakes less well. Answer: Poor road holding and longer braking. Why not the others: Higher grip on bends and corners: worn dampers let the wheels bounce and lose contact. Quieter and lighter steering at speed: the effect is on stability, not noise. A lower engine temperature on hills: dampers do not affect the engine.
