hi ....i own a 95 850t5r ..problem is juddering when you turn right...not at very low speed/ ,but it sounds like something is knocking the right side floorpan ive not had the car long and the history is sketchy...it doesnt happen when you turn left....any ideas please....im in the uk so am right hand drive...

 

Check the suspension bushings.

 

I too recommend the suspension bushings. For good measure I would check the sway bar end links too as they made my sons 850 sound noisy when turning

 

thank u im going to fit new bushes all round...i will let you know what happens

 

in my 97 960, the end link bushing was completely gone. In my 96 850, it is going bad...both cars had this malady on the left side only [:@]

 

changed top mounts..spring seats..sway bars..and suspension bushes.........still judders..........ive noticed its worse with passengers in the front..still only happens when you turn right over 25 mph .....im uk so right hand drive........any other ideas..please

 

Hello mate,

I would find a garage that lets you see the underside of the vehicle while up on the hoist, and then do a visual inspection around the right side suspension components for abrasion/scratching. When exactly does it judder, does it judder even when turning mildly to the right or at sharp turns? I am wondering if it could be the tie-rod end/rack & pinion unit(which is not commonly heard on this forum) or the steering stop. Any fluid leak from the R & P unit?

Cheers,


JPN

 

sorry..........the judder comes from the left hand side........when turning right ..this happens at speeds of 25mph or more ........any thing more than a igentle turn and she judders.....it all looked ok when i changed the other bits.......how do i know if its bad?.....also no fluid leaks....thanks
