My 99 93 has a noticeable wheel shimmy between 40-55mph. Not bad, just annoying.
Took the car into my indy and had him look at it. He said he isn't sure what is causing it, but he mainly works on Audis.
He said he checked the ball joints, control arms, and pretty much everything that holds the front suspension together and says
everything looks OK. I do trust this guy. He has done work on the car before and I've always been comfortable with his level of expertise. He said the front shocks could use replacement and the front right tire is slightly cupped. Would the worn shocks be causing this? The rims are not bent and wheels are in balance. Any ideas what he may be missing under there that is Saab specific?
