Do you ever get out from behind the wheel? My 98 sounds like an old wooden wheeled wagon when it is around 0F outside, feel like it too with the sport springs!
Keep on truckin'

I agree...my "smooth" ride during the summer and autum months is now a "harsh" ride again in the winter, with temps. near or under 0degrees F. I hope that things will smooth out again once spring gets here.

Breadboy...at least it wasn't a timing belt or a ceased engine. Do you plan to replace the alternator and keep on going with this car?
