Suspension
 
My suspension feels like its getting weak. I can hit a bump and it feels like a sport suspension. No bounce at all, just dips when i go over them. Could this mean new suspesion all around, my air suspesion is bad or both? I also noticed that I just got my wheel aligned 2 weeks ago and my steering was fine until yesterday. My car pulls to the right when i take off. It did not do this for the 1st week I had the alignment done though.

When you hit a bump and don't get a bounce, it's working like it should. If your struts were going, you'd get the 1960 Cadillac bounce. If you think it's going south, get the maintenance manual out and read the strut codes. I doubt you have a problem, or you'd be getting warning lights.

Tire pull is a STEERING problem not a SUSPENSION problem BTW! :roll: Your suspension sounds normal! Check your tire pressures first off to make sure they're all EQUAL! Next check your stab kits! BTW: You're sure it's not Torque Steer you're experiencing? :idea:
