Is It Time For 2009 Audi A4 Quattro Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Audi A4 Quattro, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your A4 Quattro feels bouncy, leans 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 2009 Audi A4 Quattro in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your A4 Quattro suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Audi A4 Quattro suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Audi A4 Quattro Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2009 Audi A4 Quattro’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2009 Audi A4 Quattro’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Audi A4 Quattro shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Audi A4 Quattro’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2009 A4 Quattro Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my A4 Quattro's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Audi A4 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Audi A4 Quattro power steering fluid need to be checked? 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’ll top it off per Audi's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Audi A4 Quattro bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Audi A4 Quattro might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my A4 Quattro to dip forward when I apply the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What do worn Audi A4 Quattro shocks feel like? Worn A4 Quattro shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your A4 Quattro might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your A4 Quattro shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
