Does Your 2011 Land Rover LR4 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2011 Land Rover LR4, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your LR4 bounces, 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 2011 Land Rover LR4 in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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 components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Land Rover LR4’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.

Land Rover LR4 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2011 Land Rover LR4 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 2011 Land Rover LR4 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Land Rover LR4 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2011 Land Rover LR4 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2011 LR4 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Land Rover's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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 Land Rover LR4 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Land Rover LR4 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your LR4’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Land Rover's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Land Rover LR4 to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your LR4 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my LR4's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your LR4 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 do I know if I have worn Land Rover LR4 shocks? Worn LR4 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
