My 00 2.7T feels a little loose on the back right - bumps mid-corner knock it off line. Back left feels Ok. Any ideas / weak spots in the back suspension? How about control arm troubles?

Its under CPO so just wanted to do my homework before taking it to the dealership.

Check the sway bar links - they're made of plastic and have been known to break.

That said, stock sport suspension is still pretty floaty at speed through the twisties. H-Sport sway bars are a great first mod that will tighten up the feel of the car considerably.

It actually feels like somethings loose

jack the rear end up, put it on jack stands and pull the wheels. I'd start by checking all the sway bar bolts and bushings - particularly the end links. With the end links, look for a broken or cracked link - they're plastic - and/or torn rubber bushings. From there, I'd check the control arm bushings. I haven't heard of any issues with the rear control arms, but you never know.

Of course, your dealer or tech can do all this stuff to. Hope this helps.
