When To Get 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas, 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 Vanden Plas jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Vanden Plas steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Jaguar Vanden Plas Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Jaguar Vanden Plas shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1991 Jaguar Vanden Plas’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1991 Vanden Plas Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jaguar's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Jaguar Vanden Plas get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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 Jaguar intended.
  • When should I have my Jaguar Vanden Plas power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Jaguar's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Jaguar Vanden Plas bounce so much? 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 Vanden Plas to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Vanden Plas 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 Jaguar Vanden Plas need replacing? Worn Vanden Plas shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Vanden Plas might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Vanden Plas shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
