'lo again,

Another problem with the Si.... honestly, who's idea was this??

When I'm driving at 50 I can feel a strange vibration in the car. Well, not a vibration, feels more lke the back of the car is bouncing slightly!!
Had the wheels balanced at Kwik-fit but doesn't seem to have cured it.
When I'm going round a left hand corner it feels like the back right rolls more than the left on a right hand corner. When the car was up I could see that the rubber seal was bust on the shocker, but bouncing it on the ground it returns to normal very quickly. Any ideas? Should I just bite the bullet and get new shockers all round and hope it cures it??

Cheers in advance

Paul :thumbsup:
