What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my BMW's suspension?

Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

Why should my BMW M4 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. 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.

Does my BMW M4 power steering fluid need to be 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 M4 bouncing so much?

If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your M4 to bounce more than usual.

Why does my M4 front end dip forward when I brake?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your M4 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 M4 shocks?

If your M4 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 M4 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.

When To Get 2018 BMW M4 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2018 BMW M4, 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 M4 bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2018 BMW M4 in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub 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 parts of your BMW M4 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your BMW M4

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2018 BMW M4 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your BMW up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2018 BMW M4 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn BMW M4 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 BMW M4’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
