Perceived loss of stability

Not sure if I’m imagining it, but my 2014 L405 seems to have gone ever so slightly floaty on the road. Like it's had one too many sherries and now thinks it's a yacht. Could be a sway bar issue. Could be the ACE system having a nap. Either way, I’ll have it checked out, but I’m curious. Has anyone else experienced this, or am I losing my marbles?

2015 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Aruba

The car should tell you if it thinks it’s leaning too much. It throws errors on the dash for that.
You can also look underneath, there will be damp patches where oil leaks from the pipes. V8 or else ...

United Kingdom 2017 Range Rover Vogue TDV6 Corris Grey

Has it had the front lower arms replaced in the last few years?
The big rubber bushes at the front of the arm are a consumable item, as per other suspension bushings.

These:




If worn out, the car feels very woolly & wayward, and tends to understeer on roundabouts, etc.

Hard to check these yourself, unless you have a lift and long pry bar. V6 Vogue - “Less is More” - less to go wrong!

Thanks, probably more than due for those arms and rubber bits.

I’d start with a 4 wheel alignment check on something like a Hunter machine. The check is normally free and you only pay to get adjustments done.
Anything worn will usually show up.
