More Problems

Can someone help.

I have had my golf gt sport for two months now and have had a host of problems with it such as build quality and sat nav problems. so here is the latest one while washing the car yesterday i noticed the suspension on the right side of the car (front only) is lower than the rest of the car (approx 5 mm)

has anyone else had this problem or simaler on there car and if so was it covered under warrenty.

any help much apprecieted.

was it parked on level ground?

tyre pressures ok?

do you get any feedback when driving it, knocks, rattles, vibrations through acceleration, braking and cornering?

[golfmark5]

:confused:Yes mate was parked on level ground all tyre pressures were 35 psi and no knocks or noises from suspension.

steering seems to wonder from time to time.

[Ben]

35psi seems a bit high. what tyre size is it?

maybe a seeping shock. have you had a good look to see if you can see evidence of seepage.?

could just be a slightly weaker spring though.

don't for get though, you sit on the right side of the car so there is extra bias.

225 45 r17s 35psi is recommended psi.

[Ben]

same as mine - i run 30psi all round i think. reminds me, i need to check them this weekends.

5mm !! gawd blimey, you must be well keen to notice that, not to mention this would be the most used side of the car, if you bounced the shockers on both sides would it even up ?
