Car Tilting?
Car Tilting?
OK, random ? for you all: Seems my car is "tilting" - when I stand behind my car on a flat surface, tried this at several spots, the drivers side seems to be lower than the passenger side almost like it's got weight on that side of the car. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

my car is tilting/leaning on the passengers side looking from behind.

why is dat?
is it spring/shox fatigue?
most of the time I ride alone in my car, so there is moe deadweight on drivers side.
sometimes when I have my fly honey sitting next to me she should even out the tilting but it doesn't happen!

good call 503! hahaha
and I'm a small dude, only 160 lbs so I don't think I'm causing my car to list to one side -- I'll see what my indy has to say about it....
hoping it's not dollars out the door - ugh!

Have you actually measured tire to fender gap? Have you taken off the wheels to check the suspension components? I would do that for sure. Perhaps one spring is sagging.
I just went out and measured and the left rear (drivers side) is 1/4" lower than the right side. Sagging spring or bad shock possibly? If the spring needs to be replaced is it best to replace both the rear or just one at a time?

I would replace both, I would imagine that if one goes the other is close behind...

had a guy at the indy shop say to get all the tires replaced as they are badly worn - which I knew and have the new tires at the shop already - and then take a look at the way it sits. He said uneven tire wear can do this as well? Anyone heard of this?
Jason, if you take a closer look to my avatar picture, that fly honey in blue with beautiful knockers - my GF looks just like her, they could be twin sisters.

I foggot to snap a pic of her, I have to do it when I see her, most of the time we shack up @ nite going on an excursion in my AMG.
When it's nitetime there are bad pictures.

Only thing i could do now to make shure, is too swich Coils Side to side and after maybe put A thicker Pad size on the lower side ,wich make me very sad cuz I like low.....
The car seems VERY fragile on weight i had to get my spare wheel out for a day ,and only that caused the car to be half an inch higher on the back...
Me and my Car are "In a Very Complicated Relationship" since all this started...

well, had everything checked out and it's all looking and riding OK - the car measures even, but looks like a slight tilt - the dealer and the indy were tripping on that - saying it looks a little lower on one side ever so slightly - but it all measures out - I was measuring incorrectly. Random - anyhow, just going to leave it be for now.
