Does Your 2019 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2019 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe bounces, sways 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 2019 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2019 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2019 Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how BMW intended.
  • When should I have my BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe 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 Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe shocks? Worn Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
