Is It Time For 1999 Land Rover Discovery Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1999 Land Rover Discovery, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Discovery jolts, leans 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 1999 Land Rover Discovery, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 Discovery steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Land Rover Discovery Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1999 Land Rover Discovery’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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1999 Land Rover Discovery shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Land Rover Discovery shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1999 Land Rover Discovery’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.

1999 Discovery Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Discovery's steering and 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Land Rover Discovery? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Land Rover intended.
  • Does my Land Rover Discovery 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 Discovery’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Land Rover's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Land Rover Discovery to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Land Rover Discovery might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Discovery front end dip forward when I brake? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Land Rover Discovery need replacing? Worn Discovery shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Discovery might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Discovery shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
