When you go to a garage complaining about suspension noise, what’s usually the first thing the mechanic does? They take the car for a drive… That’s what we do, we don’t lift the car. However, we can tell you if the suspension is weak or if you have a loose suspension link.
If a suspension problem is found, the worst case scenario is assumed (in terms of fault and price)
This can work to your advantage in the buying process as it can be used to negotiate the price of the vehicle.
We do check the shocks for leaks, and for front wheel and all wheel drive cars, we check the CV join boots/ axle boots, and take a look at the overall suspension condition
As for rust, even though we don’t lift the car, we do visually look at the undercarriage.
Most cars are high enough to simply look under them. For cars that are low, we use mirrors and/or borescope camera to inspect the undercarriage for missing parts, rust, or scrapes. (Note: the rigor depends on the level of inspection)
