When To Get 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 7, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your ActiveHybrid 7 jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 7, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 ActiveHybrid 7’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 ActiveHybrid 7 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 7’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your ActiveHybrid 7’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your BMW ActiveHybrid 7 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your ActiveHybrid 7’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 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 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW ActiveHybrid 7? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 ActiveHybrid 7 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 7’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my BMW ActiveHybrid 7 to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my ActiveHybrid 7 to dip forward when I apply 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my BMW ActiveHybrid 7 need replacing? Worn ActiveHybrid 7 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your ActiveHybrid 7 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your ActiveHybrid 7 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
