DRC thread OTD. Failed. Plus another major concern...
 
So my car was in for service two weeks ago. At the time I noticed some suspension clunking, the rear is sitting really low, etc. so I asked them to check out the DRC.

"No... everything is fine. We checked it out thoroughly. The RS just has a stiff suspension. Maybe you aren't used to it."

Not satisfied I pulled both passenger side wheels this AM. What do you think? "stiff ride"?

Also, check out the circled area on the first photo. What do you guys think? is that cracked? how would that happen? Should I be really concerned?

I would like to see a better picture of that "crack". You most likely have or starting to have a...
 
A DRC failure.

Have you told them about what appears to be a crack?

Just saw the "crack" (or whatever it is) this AM when I was reviewing the photos.
 
I have to pull the wheel again to get a better look at it.

Here's a closer crop of it with some level adjustment to bring out a little detail...

That does not look like a forged issue - looks cracked

are you everywhere?

brianja 10-30-2008 06:05 AM

It looks like a crack to me too. HTF could that have happened?

Just like to spread the good cheer far and wide!
