I just got my car registered and insured today.One of the things i noticed while driving around is that the suspencion seems kinda sloppy.I know its a hf and its no si,but seems to corner awkward.I was wondering if it could be a bad ball joint.Because when i go over a bump over the driver side tires,the wheel goes crazy and the car kinda wants to go all over the place and bounces.I also believe i have brake issues.Since the car has been sitting for a year,I believe they may have gotten warped/glazed.The car is kinda slow to stop and i am getting pulsation from the front.Im pretty sure i can just clean and adjust the rears and cut the rotors on the front and replace the pads.Anyone have any comments or idea's?Maybe solutions to one of these problems that you may have had before.Thank you

 

bump

 

sounds like front shocks are shot out. also check ball joint and for loose nuts and bolts.

brake rotors are no longer even--machine or replace

replace pads if you do the above

>>check the roundness of the tires, make sure no bubbles or flat spots

 

ya im gonna go over it all...its getting painted championship white at the moment.Getting it back tuesday.Everyone think that its probably the ball joints or struts?

 

probably here is a tip to check ur suspension first you jack either side from the control arm make sure the tire is of the ground then slide a pry bar beetween the tire and the ground to push the wheel up and down have a friend help u while he is pushing the wheel u can check the upper and lower ball joints if u see play in either u found ur problem then have ur friend grab the tire and shake it sideways to check the tie rods put ur hand on the inner tie rod if u feel play while ur friend shakes the wheel there is another problem and finaly shake the wheel up and down if ther is play ur bearings are bad

good luck

 

yupz , agree with this guy . . . .

 

thank you very much will do when i get the car back
