Coilover problem?

Hey everyone,

I seem to be having a problem with my coilovers.. After making a left or right turn, the car feels like it wants to continue drifting left or right unless I correct it by turning the wheel a bit to the other direction. An example being, I make a right turn, car continues drift a bit to the right, I then give the steering wheel a quick turn to the left, and the car continues to drive straight again. My question is, is there some sort of lubrication issue here? it seems that a bit of dust or dirt has collected on the coilovers and have an issue returning back to its neutral position.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

And p.s. I have Stance GR+ Pro coilovers.

Did you just install them or have they been on a while? Sounds like you could have too much toe either out or in. Or possibly something worn in the suspension causing play.

I recently had an alignment done, and have zero toe all around =\. Any idea of what could be causing freeplay?? perhaps pillowball mounts?
