When To Get 2004 Volvo V70 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2004 Volvo V70, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your V70 feels bouncy, pulls 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 2004 Volvo V70 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your V70 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 V70 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.

Volvo V70 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2004 Volvo V70’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2004 Volvo V70 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Volvo V70 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2004 Volvo V70 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2004 V70 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Volvo's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 Volvo V70? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Volvo intended.
  • When does Volvo V70 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 V70’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Volvo's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Volvo V70 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 V70 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my V70's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your V70'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 Volvo V70 are bad? Worn V70 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
