Is It Time For 1984 Jaguar XJ6 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1984 Jaguar XJ6, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your XJ6 jolts, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1984 Jaguar XJ6 in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Jaguar XJ6 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Jaguar XJ6 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1984 Jaguar XJ6 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your XJ6’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Jaguar XJ6 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1984 Jaguar XJ6 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 XJ6 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jaguar's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 should my Jaguar XJ6 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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.
  • When should I have my Jaguar XJ6 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your XJ6 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Jaguar service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Jaguar XJ6 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 XJ6 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your XJ6 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 do I know if I have worn Jaguar XJ6 shocks? If your XJ6 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 XJ6 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
