Rear squirming / weaving

Hi all,

 

Noticed this last night on the way back from work. The back end of the cars seems to be squirming / weaving a bit. It happened again this morning. Its a bit like oversteer. Seems to be happening at speeds over 20 and under 70 and the car is not feeling anywhere near as planted as it normally does going round bends.

 

Had a quick look under the car at lunch time and nothing appears to be broken / dislodged.

 

Any ideas on what could be causing this?

 

N.B this is on dry roads and the tyres were only changed 3 weeks ago.

 

Thanks

Jas

Commonest cause is low profile tyres with incorrect or unbalanced pressures, check them first.

 

Never did get to the bottom of what caused this on my n/a.

 

I know you had a good drive and prod about and could see nothing wrong, seems to be a more common symptom recently.

 

Did it ever shimmy while in your hands after you took it off me, michael?
