Is It Time For 2009 Honda S2000 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Honda S2000, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your S2000 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 2009 Honda S2000, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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 dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Honda S2000 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Honda S2000

Your 2009 Honda S2000’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your S2000’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Honda S2000 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Honda S2000’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2009 S2000 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Honda's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Honda S2000 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Honda intended.
  • Does my Honda S2000 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your S2000 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Honda service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Honda S2000 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Honda S2000 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 S2000 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your S2000 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Honda S2000 need replacing? 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.
