Is It Time For 2016 Porsche 911 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2016 Porsche 911, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your 911 jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2016 Porsche 911 in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 911 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Porsche 911 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Porsche 911 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 911’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Porsche 911 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2016 Porsche 911 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 911 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Porsche's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Porsche 911? 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 the tires connect with the road how Porsche intended.
  • When does Porsche 911 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 911 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Porsche's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Porsche 911 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 911 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my 911 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 911 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn Porsche 911 shocks? Worn 911 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 911 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 911 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
