Does Your 2014 BMW 740Li Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2014 BMW 740Li, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your 740Li bounces, sways 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 2014 BMW 740Li, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your BMW 740Li suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

BMW 740Li Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2014 BMW 740Li’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 limit vibration and keep your BMW up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2014 BMW 740Li shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your BMW 740Li shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2014 BMW 740Li suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2014 BMW 740Li Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my BMW's 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 740Li? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my BMW 740Li power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 740Li is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per BMW's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my BMW 740Li bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 740Li to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 740Li front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your 740Li when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW 740Li need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 740Li feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 740Li travels over minor bumps.
