Hi i have honda civiv 8th gen. My ride had become bumpy on uneved road, but when I pass by potholes it rides smooth and no noise. I find it so bumpy when the road is uneven and rough. Its like the car shakes

With only 56,000 miles on it, the shocks and struts should be OK but it depends on how old they are too.  What year is this vehicle???  Second request.


2011 model. when the road is smooth the ride is smooth but when it passes by uneven and road there's excessive bumpy feel

These suspension components are now 10 years old and I suspect it's time for new shocks and/or struts.  Hydraulic fluid and rubber parts deteriorate over time just by existing in the climate,  I would go with KYB components though expensive, are probably the best.  I'll probably get differing opinions on this.  


Should I replace all the shocks?

Yes.


Do you recommend KYB shock brands?

Yes, but you should probably check out products, prices and warranties from  several sources.


thank you so much. I still dont have a budget for it but will save up some soon
