Does anybody encountered this issue,please?
Thanks in advance
There are several components in the suspension that can cause what you describe.
I would start with the easiest to check and most likely part: The sawybar drop link.
The way to test is is to see if there's any play in the joint which wears out with time/miles.
Raise that corner of the car and undo the bottom nut securing the drop link.
Now you can handle it and determine if it';s worn or not.
Worn joints will be very loose and wobbly, whereas new ones will be very tight and hard to move by hand.
The OEM ones are about $100.
If you find that one side is worn, the other side is probably about to go too.
Happy Boxstering,
Perdro
