I never suspected the control arm would cause this. Do you feel any different when you driving it before you replace the control arm?

Hello Kuai,
Yes, the car felt much better than before, but please note that my car had almost twice the mileage and also the fact that I replaced the entire suspension (F/R control arms and "coffin arms" as well) it was pretty pricey even with the discount that Brad Roberts kindly help me to get for the OEM parts.

Hopefully you will be able to find the Lemfolder or TRW brand that are as good as the OEM parts but with lower cost.

Remember that after replacing the control arms you will need to get the car aligned
Good luck.
