Range Rover vehicles can have uniquely designed suspension systems to ensure a smooth ride. These suspension systems require a bit of attention and know-how – so we will tell you what to look out for and how to maintain your Range Rover suspension.
What is special about Range Rover suspensions?
Some Range Rovers have an air suspension built in to give your vehicle an extra cushy ride off road and on. These air suspensions use compressors and airbags within the suspension to adapt to conditions – and to be able to lower and raise the vehicle as you see fit. As you might suspect, these suspensions have the potential to give you a really nice ride in many situations and to have problems requiring adjustment or repair.
How do I tell if my Range Rover suspension has a problem?
If your vehicle is sagging, dropping, or otherwise doesn’t feel as cushy as it used to, you should get it checked out. The first sign is one of the vehicles appears to be higher or lower than the other.
Some Range Rovers are also equipped with warnings on the dashboard which tell you if your suspension is experiencing a dangerous issue or malfunction.
You might notice these issues over time, as the air suspension can indeed wear out between 6 to 10 years after the vehicle rolls off the lot.
What should I do about suspension problems with the Range Rover?
Whether you have air suspension or not, our first suggestion is to bring your vehicle to us. We have the tools and know-how to get your Range Rover driving like it should be. Not all shops are experts on air suspensions or have the tools needed to adjust or repair – and we love to figure these out and get your Range Rover back to being a very comfy vehicle.
What can I do to avoid suspension issues?
Our first suggestion here is to bring your Range Rover in for regular inspection. Issues like the suspension can sneak up on you, leading to a worse ride and more overall wear and tear on your vehicle. More wear and tear tends to result in more money and time spent on service in the long run.
Regular maintenance is critical for Range Rovers.
