Does Your 2024 BMW X1 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2024 BMW X1, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your X1 feels bouncy, pulls 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 2024 BMW X1, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your X1 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your BMW X1 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.

BMW X1 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2024 BMW X1’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2024 BMW X1 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn BMW X1 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your X1’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2024 X1 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my BMW's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my BMW X1? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my BMW X1 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your X1’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my BMW X1 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your BMW X1 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 X1 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your X1'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 are the signs that the shocks on my BMW X1 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your X1 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your X1 travels over minor bumps.
