What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Porsche's suspension?

Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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 Porsche 718 Boxster?

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 Porsche intended.

Does my Porsche 718 Boxster 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 718 Boxster is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Porsche service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Porsche 718 Boxster bouncing so much?

If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 718 Boxster goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.

Why does my 718 Boxster front end dip forward when I brake?

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 do I know if I have worn Porsche 718 Boxster shocks?

Worn 718 Boxster shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 718 Boxster might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 718 Boxster shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

When To Get 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2024 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, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Porsche 718 Boxster shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster’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.
