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. 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 should my Audi A6 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment.

Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Audi intended.

When does Audi A6 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’ll follow Audi service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Audi A6 bouncing so much?

Excessive bouncing in your Audi A6 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.

Why does my A6'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'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.

How do I know if I have worn Audi A6 shocks?

Worn A6 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.

When you first drove your 2017 Audi A6, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough.

The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2017 Audi A6 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle.

We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Audi A6’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment.

Audi A6 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Audi A6 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2017 Audi A6 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Audi A6 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your A6’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
