Re: S2 tech problem: front end vibration

[SailingFC@aol.com]

Sound like control arm bushing are worn out.  Try this... with the car on
level ground, trans. in neutral, front wheels pointed straight ahead and
parking brakes on... grab a front wheel and try to roll it forwards or back.
If there is any movement of the wheel then your control arm bushings may be
worn. Try on the other front wheel.
Good Luck.

<< As the above says, the front end of my Roc vibrates. It's most noticeable
 during deceleration and seems to come from the driver side. Some of the
 precursors were: a clanking noise when I let the clutch out in reverse and
the
 car seemed to wander a little by itself on the freeway etc. The wandering
 seemed to me somewhat connected to the throttle, that is accelerating it
 pulled a tiny bit to the right and decelerating it went a little left.  >>
