I posted a few days ago about my 88 S4 feeling like it's "floating" during acceleration and breaking. I took it into the shop today and it turned out to be the passenger side rear bushings are about GONE causing the wheel to move around........I guess I am lucky the wheel didn't fall off? LOL Also getting the trans fluid changed and a 4 wheel alignment.

Well, she's being fixed and will be back on the road in a few days time!

Lucky indeed.

I had a problem that my car wanted to float and turn more whenever I wasn't driving straight. It was like the rear wanted to bounce out with a rather floaty sensation. Turned out it was my diff mounts. It was quite weird to drive it like that I must say.

Now that I replaced them the car feels great and it puts down its power like a good 928S should.

CAREFUL on the alignment. LOTS of stuff here about it. Do a search.

1 - DO NOT let them lift the car
2 - DO NOT let them lift the car
3 - DO NOT let them lift the car
4 - Look for a Hunter DSP-400 alignment machine.

What Mark said.

Even if they sincerely believe that they know what they're doing, if they lift the car it'll be wrong.

They wont lift the car. The guy doing it also did my 87 S4 and he knows not to lift it. I also reminded him just in case he forgot LOL
