Does Your 2017 Audi S8 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2017 Audi S8, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your S8 bounces, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Audi S8, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your S8 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Audi S8

Your 2017 Audi S8’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. 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 2017 Audi S8’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Audi S8 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Audi S8’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2017 Audi S8 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my S8's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Audi S8? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Audi intended.
  • Does my Audi S8 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your S8 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Audi service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Audi S8 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Audi S8 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 S8 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your S8 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Audi S8 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S8 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S8 travels over minor bumps.
