Is It Time For 1996 Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1996 Land Rover Range Rover, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Range Rover bounces, sways 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 1996 Land Rover Range Rover, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Land Rover Range Rover’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Land Rover Range Rover

Your 1996 Land Rover Range Rover’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 getting your 1996 Land Rover Range Rover’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Land Rover Range Rover shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1996 Land Rover Range Rover suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

1996 Range Rover Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Land Rover'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 Land Rover Range Rover 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 connect with the road how Land Rover intended.
  • When should I have my Land Rover Range Rover power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Range Rover is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Land Rover's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Land Rover Range Rover to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Land Rover Range Rover 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 Range Rover's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Range Rover'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 Land Rover Range Rover need replacing? Worn Range Rover shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Range Rover might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Range Rover shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
