Did a bit of a search but couldn't find anything similar.
I've noticed an issue with my car lately where there is something wrong in the front end. The ride has deteriorated to the point where some bumps will make the car feel like its bouncing side to side, like a harsh wobble. Sometimes it feels like something is loose in the other end of the steering. It's like a shock is gone, but they are only a year old (FE2) and the car doesn't do the bouncing when pushing the corners down, seems like they are in good nick.
Also, when steering around corners the car doesn't seem to track where it used to, its a bit floaty and unpredictable.
The passenger strut tower has a bit of a crack in it which I will be fixing soon, however I doubt it's allowing enough flex to do this. The strut top rubbers are gone too, but talking to people this probably wouldn't cause the problems I'm having.
Under the car I can't really see anything wrong. The bushes all look a bit old, but nothing looks loose or broken.
Has anyone had anything similar or know where to look first?
