Why Is BMW X5 Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your BMW X5's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by BMW. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to BMW specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2004 BMW X5, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from BMW. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your BMW X5

It's a good idea to have your BMW X5 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2004 BMW X5: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your X5 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My BMW X5?

BMW X5 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2004 BMW X5 wheel alignment estimate.
