Nissan Latio Suspension Malaysia — N17
Latio suspension: MacPherson struts front, torsion beam rear. Shock absorbers typically last 80,000–100,000 km; rear shocks tend to wear first on the N17 — a common owner complaint is a bouncy or wallowing rear end on rougher roads. Strut top mounts and lower arm bushings degrade in Malaysia's climate. Inspect at every major service. Anti-roll bar links and bushings are also common wear items at high mileage.
