hey all a mechanic i went to when i first got my car had mentioned something to me about rubber mouldings being cracked or something? and that's why my car is hard over bumps.car is not lowered or anything just stock.

just wanting to know if anyone can tell me where i'd be looking to see these rubber mouldings and if possible a rough idea on price?

Thanks !

Probably talking about your suspension bushes.
These are aftermarket replacement ones

If you find out which ones are worn then you can just replace them or replace the whole lot but labour costs can he high when replacing all the bushes.

You could get genuine honda bushes from honda spare parts at a dealer or get aftermarket ones like pictured.
Also the aftermarket ones are usually harder and more performance orientated.

Some are easy and some can be pretty tricky.
Most workshops won't have any trouble.

Find out which ones are stuffed first though :)

Obviously a suspension place would be more suitable but any decent mechanic could sort it out for you.
