Close-death experience....
....well not exactly, but something like it.
Since I got my Rex (almost 2 months now), I always felt that the front suspension and the steering were a little "loose" and "wobbly". Also under hard braking the car veered to the left. I researched this and came up with either worn bushings, ball bearings, alignment, or a bit worn out suspension parts.
Well, I finally got my Rex into a workshop to find out what's up, and it turns out my whole ******* front system (suspension, steering and brakes) was ON THE AIR
, because almost every single bolt down there was loose

Everything is now tight and nice, car is aligned, I have new brake pads all around (god damn, ******* 200$ for the OEM pads
), new oil and filters, and everything seems fine now.
Thank god I didnt do anything stupid these past two weeks...well, almost nothing
