Hi there,
As you guys know Sydney's been having heavy rain lately.

Last night while driving home in heavy rain, there were a few occassions where it feels like the inner edge of the rear wheels are caught on something and the car is jerked slightly to the side. I thought it was just road bumps until my brake pedal suddenly began to feel looser, and the car became bouncy. Its as if the suspension has suddenly gone soft. And even on smooth roads there was a slight bounce while rolling along. This happened in the middle of the drive in pouring rain so it was a bit concerning.

This morning, driving it felt the same, there sames to be more bouncing on smooth roads, but nothing excessive. While idling or accelerating from stop there doesnt seem to be much change.

I wonder if anyone has any suggestions on this? Gonna take it in for a inspection this weekend I think... :o

Hows the tread on your tyres? And running lowered springs or stock?

Tires look good to me. Shocks are stock, but tires are not - they are hancooks & had been fine.
