When To Get 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Cooper Countryman feels bouncy, drifts 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 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Cooper Countryman suspension system needs repair, 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 Cooper Countryman 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.

Mini Cooper Countryman Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mini Cooper Countryman shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman’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.

Questions About 2013 Mini Cooper Countryman Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cooper Countryman's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 Mini Cooper Countryman? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Mini Cooper Countryman 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 Cooper Countryman’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mini's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mini Cooper Countryman 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 Cooper Countryman to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Cooper Countryman tilt forward 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 Mini Cooper Countryman are bad? If your Cooper Countryman 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 Cooper Countryman might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
