problem with suspension?
problem with suspension?
hey guys,
car's running great. got my z tube and stillen hi flow installed...can't wipe the smile off my face (now that i'm passed my break in)
anyways, i know i'm not being paranoid because i've checked on different surfaces and looked at it from every angle. my driver side rear seems to be riding low...OR my passenger rear is riding high. not sure if i'm describing it well enough for any of you guys to understand. also, the driver side front seems to be a little higher than the passenger front. so basically it seems lopsided...
i have an 06 6mt coupe with rear steer assist (just covering basics) i hope somebody knows what's going on so i know what i'm dealing with. TIA for the help

Obvious but practical
Try to take some measurments on the flat surface to be sure.
Measure from the ground to the same point on either side and that will let you know for sure. (Their are some specific measure points from the ground to the suspension that you can measure to determine ride height but I am not sure what they are off hand.) If they are different I would double check the tire pressure on all 4 tires and be sure that they are the same and remeasure.
After that go to the dealership. You know they love us car crazy people who know more than they do about the car and have standards that their "normal" customers don't even consider.

Be sure to measure with your weight in drivers seat and oem design is for a 150 pound driver..........obviously weight variances and fuel load will change ride heights [corner variances]

tire pressure is the same...plus i don't think it would matter with the pressure. i wish i could explain it better. let's just say one side looks 'tucked' and the other side looks 'normal'. or at least more normal than the other. either both sides should be tucked or both normal. :\
hopefully the dealership will have a solution.

Didn't want to start a new thread. Does anyone know how this sort of issue can be resolved? Is there an adjustment that can be done?
Searched the forum, and pretty much all threads would leave off without how the issue was resolved.
Thanks in advance.
