Alignment.


Well, had a wheel alignment done the last couple of days, and I must say, it made a big difference. Now the ride is even better than before. I did asked the mech to drop the front just a wee bit so it'll look nicer. The only issue I have now would be the creaking roof. The hardtop creaks unbelievably frequently these days. Almost every bend or hump gets the roof creaking. I have read threads about this exact same problem and most recommend tightening the latch mechanism on the top, although for most of the affected users, they didn't get it in the first place by changing to coilovers. I've downloaded the service bulletin for tightening the latch and it seems simple enough. I'll probably get down to it the next week and see if that solves the problem. Meanwhile, its topdown whenever I can!

Mine was rattling bad,
It hasn't rattled since I went to mazda and they tightened the roof.

Do it.

I have coil overs too.

I'm on Facebook!
