So was the problem fixed? I've been dealing with the same similar issue and haven't been able to solve it.

Sway bar endlinks. So far so good.

I thought it went away but I was wrong. Doing 80kph on a bumpy road felt unstable but 160 on a good road was fine. It might be the road plus the stiffer diff bushing. I'm out of ideas

No, but I use it all the time. Soft and comfy to crawl under the car on

One more thing for you to check... Are the tires still spinning the same direction as they where originally? Old-school says you shouldn't swap sides when rotating tires because something bad happens to the tires. What I know to be a fact is that the wear, especially on the fronts, will make the tires feel loose for at least a few hundred miles while they wear in. It will be worse than new tires for a while.

I had the tires flipped from side to side. Directions are correct. Is that what you mean?

If you corner hard, your tires will develop a saw tooth patter on the outside edge. Must be some sort of deflection in the rubber when corning that creates high spots when corning. If the tire is move the stress will be different and the tire and the car will feel loose until it wears all the new high spots off. That's my theory anyway.

Thanks for sharing this. I have a feeling you're onto something because things have improved with a couple hundred miles. But maybe I'm just getting used to it

Still does it

Remove the rear bar completely and see if the problem gets better worse. It's not really necessary a number of people that track their car find it's not too beneficial.
