Does Your 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Cooper Paceman feels bouncy, sways 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 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mini Cooper Paceman’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Mini Cooper Paceman

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 Mini up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Cooper Paceman’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Mini Cooper Paceman shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2014 Mini Cooper Paceman Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mini's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 should my Mini Cooper Paceman get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Mini intended.
  • When does Mini Cooper Paceman power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Cooper Paceman is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mini service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Mini Cooper Paceman to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Cooper Paceman front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Cooper Paceman'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Mini Cooper Paceman shocks? Worn Cooper Paceman shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Cooper Paceman might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Cooper Paceman shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
