Is It Time For 2017 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2017 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your S65 AMG jolts, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2017 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG 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 absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle 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 S65 AMG 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.

Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG suspension system. 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 2017 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your S65 AMG’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 S65 AMG Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your S65 AMG’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mercedes-Benz's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG 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 S65 AMG to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my S65 AMG to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your S65 AMG'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 do I know if I have worn Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S65 AMG feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S65 AMG travels over minor bumps.
