When To Get 2020 BMW Alpina B7 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2020 BMW Alpina B7, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Alpina B7 bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2020 BMW Alpina B7 in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

BMW Alpina B7 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2020 BMW Alpina B7 suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2020 BMW Alpina B7’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn BMW Alpina B7 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2020 BMW Alpina B7’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2020 Alpina B7 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Alpina B7's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my BMW Alpina B7 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way BMW intended.
  • When should I have my BMW Alpina B7 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per BMW's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my BMW Alpina B7 bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Alpina B7 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Alpina B7 tilt forward when I hit 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my BMW Alpina B7 are bad? Worn Alpina B7 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Alpina B7 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Alpina B7 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
