When To Get 2008 Lexus LX570 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2008 Lexus LX570, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your LX570 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2008 Lexus LX570 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your LX570 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your LX570 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.

Lexus LX570 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2008 Lexus LX570’s suspension. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2008 Lexus LX570’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Lexus LX570 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2008 Lexus LX570’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2008 LX570 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Lexus's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Lexus LX570? 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 the tires connect with the road how Lexus intended.
  • When does Lexus LX570 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LX570 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Lexus service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Lexus LX570 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Lexus LX570 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 LX570 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LX570 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn Lexus LX570 shocks? If your LX570 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your LX570 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
