Hi,
I have a problem with my car, a Mazda 3 GS 2005 sedan, with the left rear side making a banging sound. I took it to the Mazda dealership. They told me that the problem was that the rear left shock mount was broken.
Here is the estimate they gave. They said a shock mount doesn't come individually, but along with a shock absorber. So, I'd have to get the shock absorber + shock mount on my left rear side replaced which would cost me 315$. Also, as i was getting my rear left side shock system replaced, I should get my rear right replaced other wise my car would be really unbalanced. so that's another 315$. And I'd need to spend another 120$ for tyre tuning after that. So that is a grand total of 750 for a broken shock mount.
Is there a way i can get just the rear shock mount changed ? Can anyone recommend a garage where i could take my car for it? Or any other suggestion/advice?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
