Nice quiz! I'm not sure about the last one - that's the job of the suspension in general, surely - perhaps suspension should be a type-in, or the description could be tightened a bit? Anyway i enjoyed it, thank you!

Suspension does several things. It absorbs impacts, dampen movement and stabilizes the car. Coil springs are part of suspension for sure, but they particularly absorb impacts. A shock-absorber for instance is part of suspension but does not do this - it is a dampener.

Thanks for playing!

On second thought I have changed the question slightly to be less ambiguous. Appreciate the suggestion

Could you add ECM (engine control module) as a type in for ECU ?

sure. I suppose that is common in your location? I have based the answers on standard British terminology but happy to expand the answers.

Thanks for playing :-)
