New KYB Shock Absorber
Worn Out Shock Absorber
The rear shock absorber had failed causing loud squeaking noise after more than 8 years of driving and 130,000km.
Replaced with a pair of made in Japan KYB gas shock absorber. I was informed by the mechanic that the original shock absorber was using oil instead of gas.
Wonder why the rear failed earlier than the front. I suppose the front has a more constant loading from the engine as compared to the rear. The rear shock absorber was dependent on loading from passengers.
