When To Get 2018 Audi S5 Sportback Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2018 Audi S5 Sportback, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your S5 Sportback feels bouncy, 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 2018 Audi S5 Sportback in for steering and suspension services. 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, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your S5 Sportback suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Audi S5 Sportback 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Audi S5 Sportback

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2018 Audi S5 Sportback suspension system. 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 limit vibration and keep your Audi up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2018 Audi S5 Sportback’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Audi S5 Sportback shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Audi S5 Sportback suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2018 S5 Sportback Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my S5 Sportback's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 S5 Sportback? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 S5 Sportback 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 S5 Sportback’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Audi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Audi S5 Sportback to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your S5 Sportback goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my S5 Sportback's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your S5 Sportback combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Audi S5 Sportback shocks feel like? Worn S5 Sportback 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.
