Does Your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Range Rover bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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 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 issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. 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.

Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 getting your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Land Rover Range Rover shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Range Rover’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2008 Range Rover Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Land Rover's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Land Rover Range Rover power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Range Rover is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Land Rover service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Land Rover Range Rover bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Range Rover to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Range Rover to dip forward when I apply 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Land Rover Range Rover are bad? 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.
