Is It Time For 2016 Audi SQ5 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2016 Audi SQ5, 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. Perhaps your SQ5 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Audi SQ5 in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub 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 your Audi SQ5’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Audi SQ5 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 Audi SQ5’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your SQ5’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Audi SQ5 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2016 Audi SQ5’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2016 Audi SQ5 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my SQ5's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 should my Audi SQ5 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 SQ5 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 SQ5 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Audi service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Audi SQ5 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 SQ5 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my SQ5'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 SQ5 shocks feel like? Worn SQ5 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your SQ5 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your SQ5 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
