Is It Time For 2010 BMW 535i GT Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2010 BMW 535i GT, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your 535i GT feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2010 BMW 535i GT in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your 535i GT suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your 535i GT 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 535i GT Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2010 BMW 535i GT’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2010 BMW 535i GT shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your BMW 535i GT shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 BMW 535i GT suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2010 535i GT Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 535i GT's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW 535i GT? 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 the tires connect with the road how BMW intended.
  • When does BMW 535i GT 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 535i GT’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my BMW 535i GT bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 535i GT to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 535i GT tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 535i GT'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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW 535i GT are bad? Worn 535i GT shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
