A lot of replies are blocked but has anyone mentioned checking the subframe bolts are tight yet?

 

Isn't that an old wives tale?

 

 

To the OP, what condition are the tyres in, what make are they and make sure you have the correct pressures. No point going any further untuil this is known imo.

Hi Andy

 

Listen out for any knocking on turning or acceleration as this could indicate suspension problems. Hiting speed bumps won't do your alignment much good either. Check for wear patterns on the inner/outer tyres, anything excessive could indicate tracking is out :blink: I don't think alignment checks are covered in general service so maybe get it checked out somewhere that knows their stuff. These cars cars have twitchy rears anyway, as has been said ;)

 

A harder compound tyre won't grip so well in the wet/damp causing the rear to snake around. If the suspension gets the all clear a good set of sticky rubber may be useful - Toyo proxes T1R's are excellent others here may have suggestions. What tyres do you have currently by the way??
