Does Your 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster, 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 718 Boxster bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 718 Boxster suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Porsche 718 Boxster suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Porsche 718 Boxster Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Porsche 718 Boxster shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2021 718 Boxster Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Porsche's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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.
  • Why should my Porsche 718 Boxster get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Porsche intended.
  • When should I have my Porsche 718 Boxster power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Porsche service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Porsche 718 Boxster bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Porsche 718 Boxster might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my 718 Boxster front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 718 Boxster'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 Porsche 718 Boxster need replacing? If your 718 Boxster 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 718 Boxster might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
