When To Get 2000 Audi S4 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2000 Audi S4, 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. Maybe your S4 bounces, pulls 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 2000 Audi S4 in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your S4 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Audi S4 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Audi S4 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2000 Audi S4’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2000 Audi S4 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Audi S4 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your S4’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2000 Audi S4 Steering & Suspension

  • 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 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 S4? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Audi S4 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 S4 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Audi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Audi S4 bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Audi S4 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 S4's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your S4 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Audi S4 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S4 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S4 travels over minor bumps.
