318iS Suspension Woes.

The suspension on my 318iS feels really sloppy. It wants to bounce around and do strange stuff that I don't like much.

For example, when I hit a bump on one side, the car will try to pull to that side.

And when I took a hill today really fast and the car unloaded a bit, it jerked to the drivers side.

Not good in my book. Where would you guys start, and how?

Poor Californians, they are always getting the short end of it, and now this?

Check the steering coupler joint. The rubber center may have worn out. These symptoms occured on my own car when my coupler wore out.
