Is It Time For 2007 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SL55 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 SL55 AMG jolts, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your SL55 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG

Your 2007 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG’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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mercedes-Benz up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your SL55 AMG’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your SL55 AMG’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2007 SL55 AMG Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When does Mercedes-Benz SL55 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 SL55 AMG’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mercedes-Benz's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your SL55 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 SL55 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG are bad? If your SL55 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 SL55 AMG might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
