When To Get 1983 BMW 633CSi Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1983 BMW 633CSi, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your 633CSi jolts, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1983 BMW 633CSi in for suspension and steering service. 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your BMW 633CSi’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.

BMW 633CSi Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1983 BMW 633CSi’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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1983 BMW 633CSi’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn BMW 633CSi shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1983 BMW 633CSi’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1983 633CSi Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 633CSi'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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW 633CSi? 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 does BMW 633CSi power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your 633CSi’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my BMW 633CSi to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your BMW 633CSi might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my 633CSi's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 633CSi combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW 633CSi need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 633CSi feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 633CSi travels over minor bumps.
