Is It Time For 2020 BMW 840i xDrive Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2020 BMW 840i xDrive, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your 840i xDrive feels bouncy, drifts 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 2020 BMW 840i xDrive 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, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 840i xDrive suspension system needs repair, 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 parts of your BMW 840i xDrive 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 840i xDrive Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2020 BMW 840i xDrive’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 2020 BMW 840i xDrive shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn BMW 840i xDrive shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your 840i xDrive’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2020 840i xDrive Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 840i xDrive's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 840i 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 840i 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 840i xDrive’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 840i xDrive bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 840i xDrive to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 840i xDrive front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW 840i xDrive need replacing? If your 840i xDrive shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your 840i xDrive might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
