Hey guys,

Background first... I have coilovers on my car, no aftermarket struts in the front, only in the back....

Lately I noticed on the front driver's side strut area there's been some shock grease showing up out and around the strut behind the wheel... in that time I've been noticing the grease, the ride has gotten a whole lot more jiggly on that side of the car when going over bumps or potholes.

Is this a strut problem? Is my coilover on it's way out? Is it the control arm? Ball joints?

Any help would be appreciated.

Not sure if I provided enough info though, so holla back.

All you guys are aware of the recal on the 7g for front lower ball joints right? I just had mine serviced for free on Tuesday. He said they were crap too, good time to get them fixed.

Also yeah, get some better front struts.
