When To Get 2021 BMW Alpina XB7 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2021 BMW Alpina XB7, 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 XB7 jolts, 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 2021 BMW Alpina XB7, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Alpina XB7 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

BMW Alpina XB7 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2021 BMW Alpina XB7 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 2021 BMW Alpina XB7 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your BMW Alpina XB7 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2021 BMW Alpina XB7’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2021 Alpina XB7 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my BMW's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW Alpina XB7? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • When does BMW Alpina XB7 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? 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 can fill it per BMW's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my BMW Alpina XB7 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your BMW Alpina XB7 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 Alpina XB7 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Alpina XB7 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 do I know if I have worn BMW Alpina XB7 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Alpina XB7 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Alpina XB7 travels over minor bumps.
