Is It Time For 2008 Audi A6 Quattro Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2008 Audi A6 Quattro, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your A6 Quattro feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2008 Audi A6 Quattro in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Audi A6 Quattro’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Audi A6 Quattro Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2008 Audi A6 Quattro’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2008 Audi A6 Quattro shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Audi A6 Quattro shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2008 Audi A6 Quattro suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2008 A6 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 let you know when it's time to replace your 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 A6 Quattro? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Audi intended.
  • When does Audi A6 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 A6 Quattro is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Audi's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Audi A6 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 A6 Quattro to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my A6 Quattro's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your A6 Quattro's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Audi A6 Quattro need replacing? If your A6 Quattro shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your A6 Quattro might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
