EvilCamaroSS Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm looking for someone experienced with struts and shocks to tell me if the rear struts/shocks look like they fail the bounce test. The dealer says they are OK because they are not leaking, but the car bounces like a damn trampoline on rough roads,and it feels more in the seat and the floor and it feels like it's coming from the rear, also the tires have some cupping.

fredrik94087 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The stock units are a fail when brand new...IMHO....

EvilCamaroSS Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 The stock units are a fail when brand new...IMHO.... lol, well it seems like the rear is weak, I'm not sure how this compares to brand new, but I'm just looking for someone to confirm that these looks broken in the rear, the front has almost no play, where the rear counces up and down a few times before coming to a rest.
