Is It Time For 1984 Porsche 928 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1984 Porsche 928, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your 928 jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1984 Porsche 928 in for steering and suspension services. 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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Porsche 928’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Porsche 928 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1984 Porsche 928’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Porsche up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1984 Porsche 928 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Porsche 928 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1984 Porsche 928 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 928 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 928's steering and 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 faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Porsche 928? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Porsche 928 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your 928 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Porsche's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Porsche 928 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 928 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 928 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 928 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Porsche 928 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 928 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 928 travels over minor bumps.
