When To Get 2006 Infiniti Q45 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2006 Infiniti Q45, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Q45 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2006 Infiniti Q45, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Q45 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.

Infiniti Q45 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Infiniti Q45’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Infiniti up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2006 Infiniti Q45 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Infiniti Q45 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2006 Infiniti Q45’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2006 Q45 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in 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 faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Infiniti Q45? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When should I have my Infiniti Q45 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Q45 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Infiniti service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Infiniti Q45 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Infiniti Q45 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.
  • Why does my Q45 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Q45 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 do worn Infiniti Q45 shocks feel like? Worn Q45 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Q45 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Q45 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
