broken suspension?
I was driving yesterday and my car & steering wheel started shaking & also the car started really making a loud noise & vibrating underneath the drivers side
This morning i looked & i noticed that my car sits lower on 1 side than the other, also 1 wheel nut was missing & the other one was loose, the other 3 were tight I'm guessing i need to buy a new suspension or shock absorber? My question is will the suspension from the 2.0/2.5 v6 fit my 2.0 cdt? i heard that the 2.0/2.5 sit 7mm lower like the diesel so they should be identitical or am i wrong? |

Also check the bolt holes in the wheel for elongation,.

One vehicle I had displayed signs of a bearing going, AA called out and agreed. Got it transported to a mechanic who found misaligned wheel nuts, and that was it.
