Is It Time For 2006 Land Rover LR3 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2006 Land Rover LR3, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your LR3 feels bouncy, leans 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 2006 Land Rover LR3 in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your LR3 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 LR3 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Land Rover LR3 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2006 Land Rover LR3 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2006 Land Rover LR3 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Land Rover LR3 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LR3’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2006 Land Rover LR3 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Land Rover's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Land Rover LR3 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Land Rover intended.
  • When should I have my Land Rover LR3 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your LR3’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Land Rover's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Land Rover LR3 bouncing so much? 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 LR3's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your LR3 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 Land Rover LR3 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LR3 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LR3 travels over minor bumps.
