When To Get 1993 Jaguar Vanden Plas Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1993 Jaguar Vanden Plas, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Vanden Plas bounces, pulls 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 1993 Jaguar Vanden Plas, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Jaguar Vanden Plas’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.

Jaguar Vanden Plas Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1993 Jaguar Vanden Plas’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Jaguar up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Vanden Plas’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Jaguar Vanden Plas shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1993 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.

1993 Vanden Plas Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jaguar's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Jaguar intended.
  • Does my Jaguar Vanden Plas power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Vanden Plas is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Jaguar's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Jaguar Vanden Plas bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Vanden Plas to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Vanden Plas front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Jaguar Vanden Plas are bad? If your Vanden Plas 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 Vanden Plas might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
