Does Your 2009 Jaguar XJR Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2009 Jaguar XJR, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your XJR feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2009 Jaguar XJR in for suspension and steering service. 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, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your XJR suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Jaguar XJR’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Jaguar XJR Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2009 Jaguar XJR’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Jaguar up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2009 Jaguar XJR’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Jaguar XJR shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Jaguar XJR’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2009 XJR Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my XJR's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 XJR 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Jaguar intended.
  • When does Jaguar XJR power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your XJR is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Jaguar's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Jaguar XJR bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your XJR 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my XJR to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your XJR's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Jaguar XJR need replacing? Worn XJR shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your XJR might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your XJR shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
