Is It Time For 2018 BMW Alpina B7 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2018 BMW Alpina B7, 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 Alpina B7 bounces, pulls 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 2018 BMW Alpina B7 in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your BMW Alpina B7’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

BMW Alpina B7 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 BMW Alpina B7’s suspension. 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 limit vibration and keep your BMW up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Alpina B7’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your BMW Alpina B7 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Alpina B7’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2018 BMW Alpina B7 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 alert you to the need for 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW Alpina B7? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way BMW intended.
  • When does BMW Alpina B7 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Alpina B7’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my BMW Alpina B7 bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your BMW Alpina B7 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Alpina B7 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Alpina B7'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.
  • What do worn BMW Alpina B7 shocks feel like? If your Alpina B7 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 Alpina B7 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
