How Does BMW 540i xDrive Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your BMW 540i xDrive’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as BMW intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that BMW specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2017 BMW 540i xDrive, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match BMW’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get BMW 540i xDrive Wheel Alignment

Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle.

Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 540i xDrive if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does an Alignment for BMW 540i xDrive Cost?
