Does Your 2020 Audi S3 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2020 Audi S3, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your S3 jolts, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2020 Audi S3 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 parts of your Audi S3 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Audi S3 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2020 Audi S3’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Audi up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your S3’s shocks and struts 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 indicators of worn Audi S3 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your S3’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2020 Audi S3 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Audi's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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 S3? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Audi intended.
  • Does my Audi S3 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your S3’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Audi's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Audi S3 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Audi S3 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 S3 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your S3 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Audi S3 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S3 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S3 travels over minor bumps.
