Guys

I just picked up this 94 DX Coupe to take back and fourth to work the other day. During the test drive, I didnt take it much over 40-ish.

I got it out on the interstate on the way to work yesterday, and it feels like its steering itself. I have alot of experience working on cars, and to be honest it feels like I'm driving a car thats supposed to have a sway-bar, but doesnt have it installed.

The car just kinda floats real subtly from left to right (seems like its following the semi truck grooves) while im going down the road

If I take my hand off the wheel, the car really doesnt shoot one direction or the other.

I have 0 time to get under the car between 2 jobs I work during the week, so I plan on getting under it on friday, but I figured I'd throw this up to possibly get an idea of what to look for, or learn of any common issues that would cause this

Thanks

 

mabe you just need a alignment.. idk thats weird

 

I would start by checking my struts for any damage or leaks. Also all the bushings to make sure they are not rotted or cracked. depending on the trim level of the car (ex, cx, lx) you might not even have or need a sway bar but check to see if the links might be broken. also check your tires for uneven wear, cupping, feathering, etc.

 

Tirewear appeared to be even, as that was something I looked at before buying the car

The DX model,doesnt have a sway bar in the front, I dont believe.

I threw a timing belt and water pump on it this weekend and I dont remember seeing one anyways

 

i had the same problem everytime i go high speeds the car would just go left to right i have a 93 civic all i did was check my tire pressure and its gone i say check that first before going into the expensive stuff like struts bushings and stuff

 

mayb its the alignment
