When To Get 1998 Toyota Celica Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1998 Toyota Celica, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Celica feels bouncy, drifts 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 1998 Toyota Celica 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Celica suspension system needs repair, 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 Toyota Celica’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Toyota Celica

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1998 Toyota Celica suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Toyota up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1998 Toyota Celica’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Toyota Celica shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1998 Toyota Celica’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1998 Toyota Celica Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Toyota's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Toyota Celica? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Toyota intended.
  • When does Toyota Celica power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Toyota service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Toyota Celica bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Celica to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Celica tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Celica'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.
  • What do worn Toyota Celica shocks feel like? If your Celica shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Celica might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
