Guys,<br><br>did anybody experince a swinging to the car and kinda of flexi effect in the rear while turning. am suspecting there is a problem in the steering system but no workshop did find anything in addtion to the agency.<br>checked Camber, Arms, changed the suspensions with new, changed the sway linkage, chenged the shaft rubber and tyres is new now.<br><br>this swinging effect is incresing with time and now car rolling right and left. <br><br>Noting,<br><br>Eibach Lowering spring is installed<br>Vossen Wheel 9"X20 ET38 is installed<br>Rear Camber Adjusted with SPC Camber Kit&nbsp;<br><br>The most suspected is the Spring cuz I install it in a regular car shop and dont know if they did it right or wrong.
 
So they changed all these parts and now it feels like that?
You said they checked your camber, did they check the toe? if your rear toe is out it will feel loose in the rear or dog track. Dog track is if the rear wheels are not in line with the front when driving in a straight line.
A better description of the issue will help to, when did it start? did you hit a curb or pot hole? have any work done?
 
Did they properly reinstall the rear sway bar? How do the bushings look? What you're describing doesn't seem to be steering, it seems to be a loose or worn out suspension component. Since a shop has replaced so much recently, i would look over everything they worked on.
 
it was starting before about 6 months but it was slight swing and flex with turning, now it does unlikable swing + it feels like if the fron wheel is loose ( gap ) while there is no gap in the steering wheel it self. it started after couple months of installing the Eibach spring. then I started to troupleshoot. changed the OEM suspensions with its components and kept the Eibach springs. checked the Camber and Toe alignments sevral times, installed the fron and rear braces, changed the Sway Link only did not change the whole sway bar and did not remove it. I did not find anyindcation of losnes in the camber and Toe.

I remember I read somewhere, that there was a manfacturer error in the 2009 year first edtion, somthin about fluid casing and he is describing the same what am facing but forgot what was the exact problem. mine is manfactured in June 2009 so I should not have the same issue cuz from what I remeber they fixed the issue from 2009 March and byeond.

Can somebody share a pic of how is the Eibach Spring is installed in the back.
cuz am wondering about somthing, in the Eibach springs there is side with littile gaps between the coils and dont know if that should towards up or down :D ( tryied to check on youtube and google but couldnot catch what I want)
specially in the rear cuz seems the front it is towards up.
 
It's been a long time since I had lowering springs (on coilovers now). But when I had my H&R's, the side with smaller gaps was up top. The coils were closer together on the top. Also, that's the way the letters on the coils are right side up. In reality it should not matter since the upper and lower spring mounting areas are the same diameter. It will not impact your handling.

Have you looked into your control arms?
 
there was a guy on here who installed his rear springs upside down and i believe he didnt feel awkardness in handling until someone pointed out it was installed wrong. The smaller circlular part goes on top and the larger circular one on the bottom, you will also notice a groove in the control arm mount when you install it.

As for suspension, maybe you have a busted rear subframe bushing or it might even be your rack and pinion causing frontsl steering instabilities hence making your back end feel loose. I would go somewhere different and recheck your alignment as well, do they check for toe in the middle east? it might just be your alignment and last but not least have you changed your shocks?
 
Yes I did change the shocks for the 2nd time now n it is new just couple months back. They did check toe and camber n tried another shop but am liked the one am dealing with the most, did not face issues before with them.
