    Q8 Side to Side Wobble at Highway Speed with Air Suspension

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have a '21 Q8 with air suspensions, running on OEM Hankook tires, 22" wheels.

    I am feeling like the car wobbles side to side a lot, most noticeable at highway speed. This also happens when the road is even (* I guess it's not really really even, just not perceivable - but I never had this feeling with any other cars driving through the same roads). Only when the road is completely even (say a brand new bridge that was built recently) I don't notice this issue.

    The feeling is like the car wobbles, and fish-tailing just a bit, like it's out of control.

    Has anyone experienced the same feeling, and if you were able to find a remedy for it? I'd love to learn from you.
    Thank you!

    This could be a possible issue with rear suspension as in bushings or ball joints. If your Q8 has rear steering you should check those components for play as well. I guess the tell tale sign will be tire wear patterns on the rear tires.

    Thanks Brian! I'm having the car in for alignment soon and will ask the shop to check.
    I appreciate the info!
