I haven't driven a car other than my own for quite some time, so I have no means of comparison to determine whether my car is acting normal or not.
It is a CRX SiR with Tein SS 6/3 (I think) front upper/lower struts and rear upper. Also it has almost all the suspension bushings replaced wtih polyurethane. So it was recently (within three months) almost completely disassembled and put back together by a suspension workshop.
I've begun noticing a subtle huming sound (more predominant when turning) that pulsates in volume (I guess this would suggest it's on a rotating component?). I have also noticed that if I do any more abrupt steering manauvers, for example a shallow S style movement, like when changing lanes fast, the body of the car seems to lag behind the steering and when it catches up, it feels like body roll, but without any noticable tilt. At first I thought this was only happening at high speeds, but I experimented right down to 70km and was still getting the same thing.
I don't know if I'm just expecting too much out of my current setup or not, because I haven't driven another car in a long time, but I can't ever remember this happening to me before.
I can't help but feel that something is amiss. Is this normal? What could be wrong? Thanks heaps in advance.
