Handling like a boat.

Hi All. My D3 seems to be leaning a lot around corners even with the screen up the movement looks excessive. I've only one code for an intermittent / implausible signal left front. Does anyone know of any wire faults or common places to look in relation to said fault. Also if anyone knows of another reason for it please let me know.
Cheers
Dave.

Sounds like you need to check your rear upper arms as mine also has the boat like symptoms and the rear uppers are well past their best and will be replaced soon.
I'll let you know how the handling transformation goes.

I'm sure it's never been this bad. Looks like I'm going to be busy for a few days soon.
