Does Your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your 650i xDrive Gran Coupe jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your 650i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe suspension 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.

Questions About 2016 BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 650i xDrive Gran Coupe's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way BMW intended.
  • When does BMW 650i 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 650i xDrive Gran Coupe’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe 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 650i xDrive Gran Coupe tilt forward 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 650i xDrive Gran Coupe shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 650i 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 650i xDrive Gran Coupe travels over minor bumps.
