Is It Time For 2010 BMW 135i Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2010 BMW 135i, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your 135i jolts, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2010 BMW 135i in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your 135i suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your BMW 135i 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 BMW 135i

Your 2010 BMW 135i’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. 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 BMW up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2010 BMW 135i’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn BMW 135i shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 BMW 135i suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2010 135i Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my BMW'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 faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW 135i? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way BMW intended.
  • Does my BMW 135i 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 135i’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my BMW 135i bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 135i to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my 135i to dip forward when I apply 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW 135i are bad? Worn 135i shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 135i might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 135i shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
