Is It Time For 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL600 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL600, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your SL600 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 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL600 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your SL600 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Mercedes-Benz SL600 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Mercedes-Benz SL600

Your 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL600’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL600’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz SL600 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your SL600’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1994 SL600 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercedes-Benz SL600? 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.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz SL600 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your SL600’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz SL600 bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your SL600 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my SL600 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your SL600 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz SL600 are bad? Worn SL600 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your SL600 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your SL600 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
