Is It Time For 2017 BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2017 BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your 440i xDrive Gran Coupe jolts, pulls 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 2017 BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe, bring it in for suspension and steering service. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. 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 BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe

Your 2017 BMW 440i 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 440i xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts 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 440i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2017 BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 440i 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 help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 does BMW 440i 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 440i 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 440i xDrive Gran Coupe'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 do I know if I have worn BMW 440i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 440i xDrive Gran Coupe feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 440i xDrive Gran Coupe travels over minor bumps.
