When To Get 2016 Audi A8 Quattro Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2016 Audi A8 Quattro, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your A8 Quattro feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2016 Audi A8 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your A8 Quattro suspension system needs repair, 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 A8 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.

Audi A8 Quattro Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Audi A8 Quattro suspension system. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Audi up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2016 Audi A8 Quattro’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Audi A8 Quattro shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2016 Audi A8 Quattro suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2016 A8 Quattro Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my A8 Quattro's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Audi A8 Quattro? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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.
  • Does my Audi A8 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 A8 Quattro’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Audi's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Audi A8 Quattro bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your A8 Quattro to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my A8 Quattro front end dip forward when I brake? 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Audi A8 Quattro need replacing? Worn A8 Quattro shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your A8 Quattro might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your A8 Quattro shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
