My car handles pretty well on smooth roads, but when I get on roads with imperfections or bumps, my steering wheel has a tendency to jolt around left to right according to the bump. My prev vehicle was RWD so this never really occurred. Is this normal for a FWD car or is something loose/in need of replacement? Thanks. |

What other things will need replaced in the suspension/steering? This car is relatively new to me so I still haven't figured out the suspension set up etc. Anyone have diagrams or anything? Should I replace sway bar endlinks etc? |

It wouldn't hurt to replace endlinks, IIRC, they aren't connected to the steering assembly, so they wouldn't be the cause. -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
