Leaning car..

[Danny_MK2]

I noticed my car was leaning to one side the other week (the right) and i got told it was my shock absorber that could be bent.. So when i was at the scrap yard today i managed to get another off a polo mk3 which is exactly the same type, but yet it still leans to the same side!! Does anybody know what could be causing this problem!?!

did you replace both front and back at one side? did you use the springs etc of your old shockers or did you just fit the replacments with out taking them apart?

 

[Danny_MK2]

Just the back one because thats the only one thats buggered. I just replaced the whole unit without changing the springs

tbh mate it doesnt look to bad, but im only going on the pic thats at an angle, if you still not happy i would change the front also unless you are 100% sure its fine

tyre pressure and size? could be springs as well.

lol mine leans on the driver side but im hoping to solve that when i fit my coilovers.

Hmmm well i only pumped all 4 tyres up 2 days ago.. Coilovers sounds like a good idea but il just see what happens and if it gets worse il get in touch with my mechanic.

Thanks for the help though!
