About Suspension Complete Systems

The Citroen complete suspension system is designed to protect the vehicle’s body from the vibrations and shocks of the road when driving. Suspension systems vary from vehicle to vehicle but can consist of coil and leaf springs, axles, shock absorbers, ball joints, arms and rods and connect the chassis to the wheels. When driving, the suspension ensures that the vehicle’s wheels are kept firmly on the ground with no sideways or upwards movement.

The suspension system receives the pressure from bumps in the road up through the springs that are attached to the wheel. Anti-roll bars are fitted to the front suspension and are used to stop the vehicle rolling. These twist upward when they feel the road vibrations in order to minimise shock.

There are also control arms which are connected to the vehicle using bushes. Their job is to keep the tyres on the ground and prevent tyre hop. Other parts also form part of the suspension.

Failure of part of the suspension system would be indicated by a less comfortable ride as shocks would vibrate through the vehicle and be felt by passengers. Other issues can include uneven tyre wear or tyres rising from the road.

Citroen trivia

• The founder of the company, André Citroën, is renowned as something of a genius when it comes to marketing. He specifically targeted adverts for the 1922 Citroën Type C at women owners, and soon after the car became very popular, earning the nickname 'Petit Citron' after the distinctive lemon yellow paint job.
• Citroën cars have been put through their paces and all in the name of advertising. Citroën vehicles have trekked huge distances for promotional reasons, including expeditions across the Sahara, throughout Africa, all over Asia, and even across Alaska.
• In 2019, the Citroën DS was voted in the UK as the 'coolest car ever', with writers and marketers calling it the Brigitte Bardot of cars. In second place was the E-Type Jag…
• French president Charles de Gaulle's life was saved by Citroën not once, but twice. In 1961 a Citroën DS managed to stay intact despite there being a bomb made of plastic explosive, dynamite, oil, and nails. It even managed to drive away from the scene. In 1962, de Gaulle was attacked again, this time with machine guns, but the Citroën again managed to get away from the would-be assassins.
• John Lennon appeared in an advert for the Citroën DS3, many years after his death. The advert caused quite a lot of public criticism for Yoko Ono, who agreed to the musician's likeness being used.
