Suspension on 1996 850 turbo 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be ulfee1 on  Thu Nov 13 08:43 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have noticed over the last few months that when I drive over bumpy pavement there is a kind of lumpy/bumpy type of noise coming from front passenger side. Also, that side doesn't seem to be absorbing the bumps as well as the driver side and as a result the ride feels much rougher on the front passenger wheel. Recently I also noticed that that same side started making a sqeeky/rubbing/grinding type of noise also when going over rough pavement in addition to the bump/lump noise from before. I can reproduce the new noise by manually pushing down as hard as I can on the right front fender and then letting it go.

Is this just a bad shock or is it something more serious?

PS Rack and pinion and steering box were replaced on this car 2 years ago.

Thanks in advance.
