Porsche Strut Service in East Hanover

Porsche Service Center East Hanover provides specialized strut service and replacement for all Porsche models. Our factory-trained technicians use only genuine Porsche parts using advanced diagnostic equipment to maintain your car's legendary handling characteristics and ride quality. The suspension system forms a critical component of your Porsche's performance DNA, requiring expert attention to preserve both driving dynamics and safety.

Where to Get the Struts Serviced for My Porsche?

Porsche Service Center East Hanover specializes in expert suspension and strut service. We provide:

  • Expert Technicians with Porsche certification and specialized suspension training
  • Genuine Porsche Parts, including factory-specified struts, shocks, and springs
  • Precision Alignment Systems calibrated to exact Porsche specifications
  • Advanced Testing Equipment for comprehensive static and dynamic suspension evaluation

Our technicians receive ongoing Porsche training to keep up with the latest technologies. The proprietary Porsche Integrated Workshop Information System (PIWIS) diagnostic system gives our team access to model-specific suspension data and performance parameters that are not available to unauthorized mechanics.

Many newer Porsche models feature sophisticated PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) systems that integrate with the vehicle's electronic control modules. These complex systems require particular equipment and expertise, which you can get at our authorized Porsche service center.

How and When to Get Struts Service?

Porsche struts servicing typically follow these guidelines:

  • Inspection during every major service interval (20,000 miles)
  • Comprehensive evaluation after 50,000 miles
  • Testing following notable impacts or encountering road hazards

Scheduling a struts service appointment involves:

  1. Booking Options: Scheduling available online or by phone
  2. Service Timeline: We complete most strut inspections and services on the same day. However, replacements may take one or two days.
  3. Courtesy Vehicles: Available for extended service requirements
  4. Digital Documentation: Detailed inspection reports with images provided after assessment

Our team communicates all findings clearly before proceeding with any repairs. The suspension works as an integrated system, so our technicians evaluate all components together, including struts, springs, control arms, and bushings, for peak performance.

Signs You Need to Schedule Strut Service


Your Porsche will exhibit several indicators of strut wear or failure:

  • Excessive Bounce: The vehicle continues oscillating after encountering bumps
  • Uneven Tire Wear: Cupping or unusual wear patterns on tire treads
  • Handling Changes: Decreased cornering stability or increased body roll
  • Unusual Noises: Knocking or clunking sounds during suspension movement
  • Fluid Leakage: Dark oil residue visible on the strut body
  • Nose-Diving: Excessive forward weight transfer during braking

Late-model Porsche cars and SUVs may display warning lights or messages through the instrument cluster if the PASM system detects abnormal operation. Prompt attention will prevent rapid wear or deterioration of related components and preserve your vehicle's handling precision.

Types of Fluids and Why Each Is Important


Porsche suspension systems rely on several specialized fluids:

  • Strut Hydraulic Oil: High-grade hydraulic fluid inside each strut provides precise damping characteristics across varying road conditions. This specialized oil maintains consistent viscosity under extreme temperature variations.
  • PASM System Fluid: Models equipped with electronic suspension adjustments use pressure-regulated hydraulic circuits requiring specialized maintenance.
  • Power Steering Fluid: This fluid enables precise steering feedback and works in conjunction with the suspension for optimal handling. Regular inspection prevents contamination that could affect steering precision.
  • Brake Fluid: Though not directly part of the strut assembly, brake fluid condition significantly impacts vehicle dynamics during weight transfer. Performance driving places additional demands on this critical fluid.
  • Lubricants & Greases: Specialized lubricants protect moving suspension components, such as ball joints and control arm bushings, from premature wear.
