rear suspension and rear bumper

Featured Replies

Hello , 

 

a careless teenager  run into my car (Fabia Sedan 2004) while it was parked at night , he damaged the right rear side of the car

 

I attached some pictures of the incident , do you think the bumper can repaired , or it needs replacement ? What about the rear light do I have to change the whole cluster or the cover is sold separately ?

 

 I also started to hear some noise coming from the right rear side while driving over road bumps

 

I made an eye check , is it normal or it indicates a damaged rear shock absorber  ?

 

I would like to know what do you think before taking it into a repair workshop

New rear bumper, new rear light as they aren't available as a separate lens and unit.

Its possible they have clipped the rear wheel and bent something so your best bet is to get it check by someone who can put it on a ramp.

That inner wheel arch liner looks to have moves so maybe its catching on the wheel.

The rear shocks look like that when the bump stop has perished but would not cause any strange noises.

Given that the car has only been struck a light glancing blow I strongly doubt there is any suspension damage.
