Does Your 2011 Porsche Cayman Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2011 Porsche Cayman, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Cayman feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2011 Porsche Cayman 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Porsche Cayman’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Porsche Cayman

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2011 Porsche Cayman 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 2011 Porsche Cayman shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Porsche Cayman shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2011 Porsche Cayman’s 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.

Questions About 2011 Porsche Cayman Steering & Suspension

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Porsche Cayman? 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.
  • Does my Porsche Cayman power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Cayman’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Porsche's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Porsche Cayman bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my Cayman to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Cayman 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 do worn Porsche Cayman shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Cayman feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Cayman travels over minor bumps.
