When To Get 2014 BMW 428i xDrive Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2014 BMW 428i xDrive, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your 428i xDrive feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2014 BMW 428i xDrive, bring it 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 absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your 428i xDrive 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 428i xDrive 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 428i xDrive Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2014 BMW 428i xDrive’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 428i xDrive’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your BMW 428i xDrive shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2014 BMW 428i xDrive’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2014 428i xDrive Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 428i xDrive's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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 428i xDrive? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my BMW 428i xDrive power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 428i xDrive is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my BMW 428i xDrive bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 428i xDrive 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 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 428i xDrive's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW 428i xDrive need replacing? Worn 428i xDrive shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 428i xDrive might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 428i xDrive shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
