Why Is Porsche 944 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Porsche 944’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Porsche intended. When the system is aligned to Porsche specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1987 Porsche 944, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Porsche’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Porsche 944

It's a good idea to have your Porsche 944 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1987 Porsche 944: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your 944 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Porsche 944?

Porsche 944 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.
