Does Your 2018 Audi R8 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2018 Audi R8, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your R8 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2018 Audi R8 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your R8 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Audi R8’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Audi R8 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 Audi R8’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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2018 Audi R8’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Audi R8 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Audi R8 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2018 Audi R8 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Audi's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Audi R8? 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.
  • When does Audi R8 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Audi's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Audi R8 bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your R8 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my R8 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your R8 when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What do worn Audi R8 shocks feel like? Worn R8 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.
