I do not see any leaks, but after hitting two pot holes on two different occasions, i now hear some noises when breaking and turning at slow speeds. also, i feel the light bumps on the road harder now. now sure if maybe the cv joints, or some other component, but on inspection there are no visible tears, etc. car now has 47K miles (2005). i dont feel the same "tight" feeling as before. I figure just change the struts and put in new springs, front brake pads, and get new tires. then i will see how the car rides after that. will go with KYB GR-2 struts, but not sure which coil springs to get yet. as all New Yorkers know, our roads here in the city are like a military obstacle course every day. the tri-state area is murder on our cars.
