Is It Time For 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your ActiveHybrid 5 bounces, sways 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 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your ActiveHybrid 5 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

BMW ActiveHybrid 5 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 suspension system. 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 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your BMW ActiveHybrid 5 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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.

2015 ActiveHybrid 5 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my ActiveHybrid 5'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. 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 ActiveHybrid 5? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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 ActiveHybrid 5 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per BMW's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my BMW ActiveHybrid 5 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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 ActiveHybrid 5 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your ActiveHybrid 5 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW ActiveHybrid 5 are bad? Worn ActiveHybrid 5 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your ActiveHybrid 5 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your ActiveHybrid 5 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
