The front end feels a bit "jiggly" and a little uncontrolled.
the shocks are original and the car's done 65k
there's no sign of leaks / damp around the shocks.
The "secondary spring" / bump stop is split on one side, but the bushes etc all look fine.
The "jiggliness" doesn't feel like it's more on one side than another.
The rear shocks were replaced last year (one lost its fluid)
When that went, it didn't feel like this, it was more of a lurch under harder cornering.
So does anyone have experience and / or advice? how do I test the shocks? Or could it be the top mount / bearing?
Please don't just say "go to CoG!" as that would be uneconomical; / unfeasible for me besides, I like fixing shizzle myself
