Does Your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your SLS AMG feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your SLS AMG suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my SLS AMG's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Mercedes-Benz's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your SLS AMG to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my SLS AMG tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your SLS 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG need replacing? If your SLS 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 SLS AMG might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
