He said they think its a result of the way the car is suspended in the production process..seems odd .
That's real interesting.
I don't seem to have those symptoms.
I have heard that in other makes of cars, once they get some miles on them.

They also changed your strut?

Strut was changed on driver side along with top mount, and top mount on passenger side at earlier date.

Thanks for sharing that information. Seems like you have a good dealer, to be able to diagnose those items and get them replaced for you.

It seems like a few bad ones made it past the QC folks in Stuttgart. This fellow here did a great job of documenting his issues.

They are worth watching.
