Does Your 2000 Mitsubishi Diamante Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2000 Mitsubishi Diamante, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Diamante bounces, drifts 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 2000 Mitsubishi Diamante in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Diamante suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mitsubishi Diamante’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, 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 Mitsubishi Diamante

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2000 Mitsubishi Diamante suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2000 Mitsubishi Diamante’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Diamante shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Diamante’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2000 Diamante Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mitsubishi's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mitsubishi Diamante? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Mitsubishi Diamante power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Diamante is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Diamante bouncing so much? 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 Diamante front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Diamante'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 Mitsubishi Diamante shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Diamante feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Diamante travels over minor bumps.
