FAQ – Audi Suspension Repair
1) How do I know if my Audi needs suspension repair or just an alignment?
If parts are worn (e.g., bushings, ball joints), an alignment won’t hold. We inspect components first; if everything is tight, we’ll recommend an alignment.
2) Can you service Audi air suspension and adaptive/magnetic dampers?
Yes. We diagnose leaks, compressor faults, height sensors, control valves, and adaptive damper issues, then repair or replace as needed.
3) Do you use OEM parts?
We use OEM or high-quality OEM-equivalent parts that meet or exceed factory specs—selected for safety, ride quality, and durability.
4) Should shocks/struts be replaced in pairs?
Yes. Replacing in pairs (front or rear) keeps handling balanced and predictable and helps your alignment and tires last longer.
5) Do you also service Mercedes suspension?
Absolutely. We handle Mercedes control arms, air suspension (AIRMATIC), dampers, links, and alignments—plus full auto repair and service.


Does your car dip or rock when you go over bumps or drift around corners even at low speeds?
If you answered yes, it may be time to replace your vehicle’s shocks or struts.


If you count drive time as an upper body workout because your car wants to turn when you want to go straight, you may have steering system problems.
