Does Your 2007 Jaguar X-Type Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2007 Jaguar X-Type, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your X-Type bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2007 Jaguar X-Type in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 Jaguar X-Type’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Jaguar X-Type

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2007 Jaguar X-Type suspension system. 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 X-Type’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Jaguar X-Type shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2007 Jaguar X-Type’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.

2007 X-Type Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my X-Type's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Jaguar X-Type? 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 should I have my Jaguar X-Type power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your X-Type’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Jaguar's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Jaguar X-Type to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my X-Type front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your X-Type when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Jaguar X-Type are bad? Worn X-Type shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
