What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my BMW's suspension?

Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

Why should my BMW 330i get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment.

Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 BMW intended.

When does BMW 330i power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed?

Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your 330i is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.

Why does my BMW 330i bounce so much?

Excessive bouncing in your BMW 330i 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 330i'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 330i are bad?

Worn 330i shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 330i might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 330i shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

Does Your 2024 BMW 330i Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2024 BMW 330i, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your 330i feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2024 BMW 330i, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your 330i steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

BMW 330i Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2024 BMW 330i’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 330i’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn BMW 330i shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2024 BMW 330i suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.
