Is It Time For 2016 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2016 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe, 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 428i xDrive Gran Coupe feels bouncy, drifts 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 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 getting your 2016 BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 428i xDrive Gran Coupe Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my BMW's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per BMW's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my 428i xDrive Gran Coupe front end dip forward when I brake? 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 428i xDrive Gran Coupe are bad? Worn 428i xDrive Gran Coupe shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 428i xDrive Gran Coupe shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
