Is It Time For 1992 Audi 80 Quattro Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1992 Audi 80 Quattro, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your 80 Quattro jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1992 Audi 80 Quattro in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 80 Quattro suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Audi 80 Quattro suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Audi 80 Quattro

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1992 Audi 80 Quattro’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 80 Quattro’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Audi 80 Quattro shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1992 Audi 80 Quattro’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1992 80 Quattro Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Audi's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Audi 80 Quattro? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Audi intended.
  • When should I have my Audi 80 Quattro power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your 80 Quattro’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Audi service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Audi 80 Quattro bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 80 Quattro to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 80 Quattro's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your 80 Quattro when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Audi 80 Quattro shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 80 Quattro feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 80 Quattro travels over minor bumps.
