    and if you are on oem shocks... push the car down on all for corners it shouldn't rebound if it does your shock absorbers have lost the ability to control the car's weight... aka the gas has leaked out... long story short they'll need replacing... and if you need to replace one... remember to replace them in pairs or do them all in one go.

    Hi yeah the car sits flat no leaning whatsoever,no knocks or bangs apart from a twang the other week.Saying that you know the right wheel seems to look odd.I can’t explain but doesn’t sit like the left wheel but the car does not tilt.

    yeah take a picture of said front wheels... it'll make it easier for us to guess what might be the problem but reading how you experience the pulling, it probably has something to do with the control arm bushes or the ball-joint. Or the person doing the alignment forgot to bolt something up, it happened to before

    Default Annoying Suspension Fault…..Still

    Hi guys,I posted on here recently about weird suspension problem .Well looking at the wheel ms more closely the drivers wheel seems to toe in and the passenger side wheel seems too toe out.I have had 4 wheel tracking done and checked parts etc no play on track rods or anything and all seems good.no knocks or bangs etcThis problem has my mate who is a mechanic baffled too.He says swap front tyres with rear ones but what will that show?Any ideas guys as this is becoming a nitemare with it pulling aggressively to the left.

    If it has had 4 wheel alinement surely they would tell you what the problem is ,mine was wearing out rear tyres on the in side edge , no amount of adjustment could fix it . They told me it had been hit just in front of rear axel and had twisted it . Needed a new rear axel

    Also I have merged the 2 threads ,no need to create threads for the sake of it
