When To Get 2005 Volkswagen Touareg Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2005 Volkswagen Touareg, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Touareg feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2005 Volkswagen Touareg, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. 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 Touareg steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Volkswagen Touareg Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2005 Volkswagen Touareg’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2005 Volkswagen Touareg shock and strut replacement 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 Volkswagen Touareg shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Touareg’s 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.

2005 Touareg Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Touareg's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Volkswagen Touareg get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Volkswagen intended.
  • When does Volkswagen Touareg power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Touareg’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Volkswagen's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Volkswagen Touareg bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Touareg to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Touareg to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Touareg 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Volkswagen Touareg shocks? Worn Touareg shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Touareg might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Touareg shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
