Does Your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your A3 Quattro jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your A3 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 your A3 Quattro steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Audi A3 Quattro

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Audi up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Audi A3 Quattro shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Audi A3 Quattro suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2013 A3 Quattro Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Audi A3 Quattro? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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 does Audi A3 Quattro power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Audi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Audi A3 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 A3 Quattro to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my A3 Quattro front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your A3 Quattro combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn Audi A3 Quattro shocks? Worn A3 Quattro shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your A3 Quattro might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your A3 Quattro shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
