Parts for your 2022 Mitsubishi Asx-Coil springs

2022 Mitsubishi ASX Coil Springs

Coil springs are absolutely fitted to the 2022 Mitsubishi ASX. Mitsubishi’s published MY22 ASX specifications and the factory workshop literature for the chassis/suspension note a MacPherson strut front end with coil springs and a rear suspension using coil springs. That makes coil springs entirely relevant to ride height control, load support and everyday comfort on this model.

On the ASX, each coil spring carries the vehicle’s weight at its corner and works with the shock absorber/strut to soak up bumps, keep the tyres planted and maintain stable handling. They set the ride height, help the SUV cope with passengers, cargo and towing tongue loads, and reduce body roll when cornering. In Aussie and Kiwi conditions—think corrugations, potholes and beach runs—healthy coil springs make a noticeable difference to comfort and tyre grip.

There’s no fixed replacement interval for coil springs on a 2022 ASX, they’re typically changed when worn, sagged or broken. Good servicing practice is to inspect them at every major service: look for cracked or broken coils, flaking paint and rust (especially after coastal use), and uneven ride height from side to side. If one spring fails, replace springs in axle pairs to keep handling balanced. After fitting new springs, a wheel alignment is smart to dial in correct geometry.

• Common signs it’s time: rear end sag with gear or a bike rack fitted, clunks over bumps, frequent bottoming-out, bouncy ride, or uneven tyre wear.
• Choose quality OE-equivalent or load-rated springs if the ASX regularly carries gear or tows, cheap low-rate springs can hurt stability.
• Use proper spring compressors and safety stands, this is a job best left to a qualified tech.
• Rinse the underbody after beach work to slow corrosion and extend spring life.

Keep the ASX’s coil springs in good nick and the SUV feels planted, steers predictably and rides comfortably, whether it’s commuting, school runs or a long haul down the Coast.

Popular questions about 2022 Mitsubishi ASX coil springs

Does the 2022 ASX use coil springs or leaf springs?
The 2022 ASX uses coil springs at both ends. Leaf springs aren’t used on this model. The front is a MacPherson strut with a coil spring, and the rear also employs coil springs to control ride height and comfort.

How long do ASX coil springs usually last?
There’s no set kilometre limit. Many last well past 150,000 km, but life depends on load, roads and corrosion. Regular inspections during servicing catch early sag or cracked paint so springs can be replaced before comfort or tyre wear suffer.

Should shocks/struts be replaced with the springs?
Often, yes. If the shocks or struts are worn, pairing fresh dampers with new springs restores proper control and prevents a floaty or choppy ride. Replacing in matched pairs per axle maintains even handling.
