Is It Time For 2008 BMW 328xi Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2008 BMW 328xi, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your 328xi feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2008 BMW 328xi in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 328xi suspension system needs repair, 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 BMW 328xi’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 328xi Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2008 BMW 328xi’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2008 BMW 328xi shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your BMW 328xi shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2008 BMW 328xi’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2008 328xi Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my BMW's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW 328xi? 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 connect with the road how BMW intended.
  • Does my BMW 328xi 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 328xi is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my BMW 328xi 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 328xi to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 328xi'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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW 328xi are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 328xi feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 328xi travels over minor bumps.
