Does Your 2002 Honda S2000 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2002 Honda S2000, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your S2000 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2002 Honda S2000 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your S2000 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Honda S2000 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2002 Honda S2000’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your S2000’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Honda S2000 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2002 Honda S2000 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2002 Honda S2000 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my S2000's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Honda S2000 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 correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Honda intended.
  • When should I have my Honda S2000 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your S2000’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Honda's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Honda S2000 bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your S2000 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my S2000 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your S2000'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 Honda S2000 are bad? Worn S2000 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your S2000 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your S2000 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
