Does Your 2014 BMW 650i xDrive Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2014 BMW 650i xDrive, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your 650i xDrive jolts, 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 2014 BMW 650i xDrive 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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your BMW 650i xDrive’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 650i xDrive Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2014 BMW 650i xDrive’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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2014 BMW 650i xDrive 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 rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your BMW 650i xDrive shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your 650i xDrive’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2014 650i xDrive Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 650i xDrive'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 650i xDrive? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 650i xDrive power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 650i xDrive’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per BMW's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my BMW 650i xDrive bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 650i xDrive 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my 650i xDrive to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 650i xDrive'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW 650i xDrive need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 650i xDrive 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 travels over minor bumps.
