yeah but if you read swedecar's posts I think he mentioned that in 03 or 04 the subframe bushings were changed to softer material.
So this is of interest to me because I just let my 1999 9-5 go and am now driving a 2004 9-5 . The 1999 had 170k miles and only a sway bar link was replaced with respect to suspension components and the car was driven a dozen or so times a year on some rutted long dirt roads. I could tell the rear suspension was worn but the front seemed ok
Now when driving the 2004 with 80k miles I have immediately been able to detect slightly more feel of slop and jiggle in the ride as compared to the beaten 1999 and I am thinking this is owing to the softer bushings. the 2004 was the wife's car and she drives it conservatively.
