My front wheels are starting to feel a bit uncontrolled going over bumps. I'm thinking of changing my shocks. My car is a 07 STS-V with ~70K miles on it. Has anyone changed theirs? Did the stability / handling improve? And how much did it cost?
Has anyone replaced their shocks?

Can we use the kyb units?
Have you tried the standard bounce test for the shocks to see how many bounces you get?
Thanks for the replies. Bounce test is not bad really. But I think the shocks would have to be really far gone for it to fail on a car with as stiff a suspension as ours. I agree I only seem to have issues on the front. Did anyone have a garage change them, and how much was the total bill?

Daytime Running Lights - DRL headlight staying on all the time
Cadillac STS-V Series ForumI'm wondering if my daytime running lights, DRL are working correctly. Once I start the car the headlights and tail lights turn on and stay on until I turn off automatic lights or turn off the car.
