Does Your 1995 Jaguar XJ12 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1995 Jaguar XJ12, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your XJ12 jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1995 Jaguar XJ12 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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your XJ12 suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Jaguar XJ12’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.

Jaguar XJ12 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1995 Jaguar XJ12’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1995 Jaguar XJ12’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Jaguar XJ12 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1995 Jaguar XJ12’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1995 Jaguar XJ12 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Jaguar's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Jaguar XJ12? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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.
  • Does my Jaguar XJ12 power steering fluid need to be 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’ll top it off per Jaguar's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Jaguar XJ12 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your XJ12 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my XJ12's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your XJ12 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Jaguar XJ12 need replacing? Worn XJ12 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your XJ12 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your XJ12 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
