Is It Time For 2004 Jaguar S-Type Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2004 Jaguar S-Type, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your S-Type bounces, drifts 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 2004 Jaguar S-Type in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel 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 go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Jaguar S-Type’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Jaguar S-Type

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2004 Jaguar S-Type suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Jaguar up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2004 Jaguar S-Type’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Jaguar S-Type shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2004 Jaguar S-Type suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2004 Jaguar S-Type Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jaguar's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Jaguar S-Type? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Jaguar S-Type power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your S-Type is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Jaguar's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Jaguar S-Type bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my S-Type to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your S-Type'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 Jaguar S-Type shocks feel like? If your S-Type shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your S-Type might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
