Does Your 2006 Volkswagen Touareg Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2006 Volkswagen Touareg, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Touareg jolts, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2006 Volkswagen Touareg in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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 absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Touareg 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 Touareg steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Volkswagen Touareg Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2006 Volkswagen Touareg 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Volkswagen up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2006 Volkswagen Touareg shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Volkswagen Touareg shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2006 Volkswagen Touareg suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2006 Touareg Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Volkswagen'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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Volkswagen Touareg? 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 come into contact with the road in the way 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 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Volkswagen's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Volkswagen Touareg bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Volkswagen Touareg might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Touareg's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Touareg'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Volkswagen Touareg are bad? If your Touareg 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 Touareg might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
