Does Your 2000 Volvo S70 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2000 Volvo S70, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your S70 feels bouncy, leans 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 2000 Volvo S70 in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your S70 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 S70 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.

Volvo S70 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2000 Volvo S70 suspension system. 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 limit vibration and keep your Volvo up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2000 Volvo S70 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Volvo S70 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2000 Volvo S70 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2000 S70 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Volvo's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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.
  • Why should my Volvo S70 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 come into contact with the road in the way Volvo intended.
  • When does Volvo S70 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Volvo's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Volvo S70 bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your S70 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my S70 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your S70'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Volvo S70 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S70 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S70 travels over minor bumps.
