Floaty ride? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

VetteMed · 07-09-2009

Now that my Z is up and running, I've noticed that the ride seems rather floaty compared to my '94 C4 (LT1, with base FE1 suspension). It seems like I get quite a bit of bounce after relatively gentle highway dips... And it doesn't seem like changing the FX3 setting does very much. I occasionally get a "Service Ride Control" light upon startup.

EDIT: I just found the procedure to pull the FX3 codes, so I'll do that tonight and post my findings.

Sound like the bilsteins need a rebuild/revalving?

BTW, the car has 65K miles, and sat for approx 2 years before I bought it.
