Is It Time For 1993 Subaru SVX Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1993 Subaru SVX, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your SVX jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1993 Subaru SVX, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If your SVX steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Subaru SVX Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1993 Subaru SVX’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Subaru up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1993 Subaru SVX’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Subaru SVX shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1993 Subaru SVX suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1993 SVX Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my SVX's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Subaru SVX? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Subaru SVX 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 SVX’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Subaru service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Subaru SVX to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your SVX to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my SVX's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your SVX's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How do I know if I have worn Subaru SVX shocks? Worn SVX shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your SVX might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your SVX shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
