What is lubricating the suspension all about?

The suspension allows the wheels of a vehicle to roll over bumps and through potholes while keeping the car in control and the passengers comfortable. Numerous parts in the suspension system move around and connect to the vehicle via joints. Common joints include ball joints and u-joints. Proper lubrication keeps moving parts moving. Some connections in the suspension will contain bushings that could benefit from lubrication as well.

Keep in mind:

  • If components in the suspension of a vehicle are broken or missing, lubrication will not fix the problem.
  • Different parts take different kinds of lube, so consult the vehicle’s manual for the manufacturers recommendation.
  • Some vehicles come with joints that are “permanently lubricated” from the factory. These may need to be lubricated if they exhibit symptoms of excess friction.

How it's done:

  • Apply grease to the zerk fittings of all the steering and suspension parts.

Our recommendation:

The manufacturer should have a certain number of miles it suggests in the owner's manual that the vehicle will travel before needing lubrication on parts of the suspension. Different joints, pivots, and bushings will need individual attention. Some parts will need more attention than others. When accessing the points in the suspension that need to be serviced, inspect surrounding parts and components that may show wear. This includes parts along the drivetrain or within the steering system. Preventative maintenance can be very straightforward with regular inspection of crucial parts.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to lubricate the suspension?

  • Loud squeaking from under the car when it goes over bumps
  • Groaning sound when turning
  • Suspension not moving smoothly, feels too bumpy

How important is this service?

This service is important in several ways. Without proper lubrication, the suspension will not provide a comfortable ride. If the vehicle is not going over sumps smoothly, the handling could be negatively affected. Expensive parts wear out faster with excess friction.

BMW M6 V10-5.0L - Electric Problems Inspection - Phoenix, Arizona
Benji arrived about 15 minutes early, which was a nice surprise. He asked me to describe the car's issues and it was immediately clear that he was an expert and was very experienced with high-end cars and electrical problems. Even though he quickly diagnosed the crux of the problem(s), he still took the time to check and rule out (or in) other potential sources and related system failures. This type of analysis never seems to occur at dealerships--instead, they jump to a conclusion (usually the most expensive) you are stuck with. The problem isn't solved or fully solved or some new problem crops up, and they explain why you now need to get more things done as well even though they supposedly weren't wrong with what they "fixed" first. Benji's approach was nothing like that. He was straightforward, logical, honest and smart. I also like knowing who is working on my car--which dealerships don't usually do. Instead, they put a "service advisor" buffer (and BS-er) between the car owner and the person actually doing the work--which leads to miscommunication and dissatisfaction. Customers don't need some bogus translator as though the techs can only speak in russian or some obscure language. Benji also showed me some of the read-outs he got as he tested things--which was helpful too. He understood the car's computer system and coding too--which is not simple in an M6. I would trust Benji with anything from a beloved 20yr old family volvo or pick-up truck to a Bugatti.
