suspension probs...
On my '91 S2 cabriolet when i hit a bump the car seems to wobble or shimmy. It seems to corner fine but something just doesn't feel right. I know this is vague but any ideas what I should be looking at? I had the rear up and the bushings all look ok, nothing felt loose when i pulled on it, and the car doesn't bounce after jumping up and down on the back bumper, seems to settle quickly. The front end, I recently snugged up the bearing on the right side and that eliminated the play I had felt in the wheel when moving it back and forth by hand. Everything looks ok from a simple visual inspection. Thx

I suspect the bushings in my 944S's rear suspension are shot. The rear is squirlley at times, as if the entire suspension is wiggling. It is more noticeable with the 265/17 tires than with the original fitment 215/15s.
If you have wide tires, you need an alignment that takes them into account. Is any of this familiar to what you're experiencing? |

thats just what it feels like, but the bushings look good and the wheels and tires are original size. I'm not absolutely sure about the bushings but i tried prying them with a tire iron and they did not seem sloppy.
