Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercedes-Benz's suspension?

When does Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG 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 SL43 AMG’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG bouncing so much?

If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your SL43 AMG goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.

Why does my SL43 AMG front end dip forward when I brake?

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 are the signs that the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG need replacing?

If your SL43 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 SL43 AMG might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.

Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out.

But there's no set schedule for 2024 Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz SL43 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your SL43 AMG’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.
