Re: Front end noises S80 2000

At 18,500 miles dealer removed & replaced faulty front stabilzer uplinks. Noise is completly gone.

Drift to left and shimmy at 75mph were attributed to wheels out of balance. Alignment was perfect. Although I had my tires rotated faithfully every 7,500 miles I ASSUMED dealer was also balancing them with each rotation. He wasn't! Shame on me.

Old dealer say they never balance unless customer has an obvious complaint. I now have a new dealer who is willing to protect me from myself as well as provide professional level service. And I now have a $45,000 car that no longer sounds like a Chevy Caprice with 175K.

The AM radio still sucks!!!
