Need help with suspension
Hi guys im new to this forum. Ive been looking and googling but I cant seem to find anybody with the same issue i got. So theres something wrong with my rear end. When ever I take a long corner, like a big on ramp loop. During the loop, my rear end is slipping, swaying as well. It feels very dangerous. Is it just my car, or does anyone else get that?

I'd recommend checking your tires first....tread depth and tire pressure. If both of those are good, I'd recommend checking your alignment.

How many miles? Also could be worn rear dampers.

Sorry to bring this back from the dead. I finally got my cars alignment done today. My car is even worst now. Its very scary to drive. It makes sudden swerve feeling and it doesnt feel safe. Tire pressure has been checked, alignment done. Recently put on coilovers about 2 months ago. Ive been searching the web for answers, found a couple threads about this issue. But everyone just says, oh its gotta be your alignment. Any help would be nice. Anyone have the same problem?

And how about posting alignment numbers (why i advise always to ask for printout or at least take a pic with phone off screen)? Alignment been done is NOT always alignment dialed right. Only seeing actual numbers can let others to point - that's ok, problem somewhere else, or how could you drive with particularly that or that being that much off, find normal alignment shop instead of that quack shop.

Is the issue symmetrical or are turns in one direction worse than in the other? Have you checked the suspension for any play? |
