Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my S5's steering and suspension?

Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.

Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Audi S5?

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 connect with the road how Audi intended.

When should I have my Audi S5 power steering fluid checked?

Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your S5 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Audi's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Audi S5 bouncing so much?

If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your S5 to bounce more than usual.

Why does my S5's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?

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 do worn Audi S5 shocks feel like?

If your S5 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your S5 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.

We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Audi S5 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Audi S5

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2010 Audi S5 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2010 Audi S5 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Audi S5 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 Audi S5 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.
