...I was wondering what the problem might be. My car feels very loose when driving, like I'm driving on smothing thats not connected to the car. It's hard to explain. The ride quality is shitty and I can hear bumps and rattles when driving over even the smallest of bumps. The shocks are new so what do you think could be loose causing me to get the feeling that the wheels are gonna fall off.

 

i had the same problem. in the back, there should be the two speaker towers. unscrew the top of them and take the speaker out. then take out the cotton and you should see a big thing with a bolt around it. this is your strut. tighten it as much as you can. and if that little black thing starts to spin too, then put a screw driver tip in there then tighten. it should stop as soon as you tighten both of them.

 

Shocks possibly.

Broken rear suspension links possibly (had that problem).

 

really??? what about the fronts?

 

Please tell me this is true! I'll go out there right now in the dark and do it!

 

How would I go about checking the suspension links.

 

Most of the looseness feels like it's comming from the front. I checked the front strut bolts and they are on there pretty tight. So what could it be then? Remember, it feels like something is loose on the front end. Kind of shifting around and bunping under there.

 

get it on a lift, then see
