Does Your 2018 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2018 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe feels bouncy, drifts 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 2018 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2018 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe’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. 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 2018 BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 BMW 430i 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.

2018 430i xDrive Gran Coupe 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 let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe 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 430i xDrive Gran Coupe’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 430i xDrive Gran Coupe 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 430i xDrive Gran Coupe to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my 430i xDrive Gran Coupe to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW 430i xDrive Gran Coupe are bad? Worn 430i xDrive Gran Coupe shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 430i xDrive Gran Coupe shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
