Is It Time For 1998 Infiniti I30 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1998 Infiniti I30, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your I30 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1998 Infiniti I30 in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Infiniti I30’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Infiniti I30 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1998 Infiniti I30’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 I30’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Infiniti I30 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your I30’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1998 Infiniti I30 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Infiniti's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Infiniti I30? 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 does Infiniti I30 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your I30 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Infiniti I30 to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your I30 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my I30's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your I30'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 do worn Infiniti I30 shocks feel like? Worn I30 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your I30 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your I30 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
