Car feels wobbly
Hey All,
the AMG just got back home for a strut/shock change from stock to Bilstein Yellow HDs. Anyways I noticed that the car is very "wobbly" when it goes thru certain bumps, (feels like as if u were driving a FR car speeding thru a bunch of bumps) car feels like the back is being loose. I swapped into the Yellow HDs because i thought that was the reason why the car was wobbly. The car is now not as bumpy but doesnt "handle" well. Any clue what I'm looking at???
Oh also the strut mounts for the front were replaced since it began to crack

so, I topped off the brake fluid since it was a little lower, not TOO low, i just topped it off to the max line.
now the wobbly is gone on the way to work, gonna monitor it on the way home tonight.
