Is It Time For 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your G55 AMG 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 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG 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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 G55 AMG 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 G55 AMG Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG’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 limit vibration and keep your Mercedes-Benz up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2006 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 G55 AMG? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your G55 AMG’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG 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 G55 AMG's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What do worn Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG shocks feel like? If your G55 AMG 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 G55 AMG might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
