Does Your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your CLK350 jolts, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350, 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 dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 parts of your Mercedes-Benz CLK350 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz CLK350 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mercedes-Benz CLK350? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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 Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your CLK350 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Mercedes-Benz's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Mercedes-Benz CLK350 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 CLK350 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my CLK350 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your CLK350'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 do worn Mercedes-Benz CLK350 shocks feel like? Worn CLK350 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your CLK350 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your CLK350 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
