Car Swaying left to right...
Discussion
Hoping to get some advice on snaking!
2014 ford bmax good tread of tyres all round no obvious loose ball joints, track rod ends etc.
Getting upto speed and the car feels like it's snaking at the back end and literally makes you feel travel sick swaying left and right and seems to get worse as you build speed. Just changed nearside rear shocker (could only get one last minute today) and changing the other one tomorrow as read it could be that.
Tyres seem all good with no bulges or anything.
Is there anything else obvious to look for at all?
Cheers!

So to update this. This morning I changed the second rear shocker and checked all 4 tyres as a last ditch attempt before booking it on the garage and voilà, touch wood it seems to be sorted! I'm telling myself it must've been the shocker(s) as surely a 3-4 psi pressure loss in one tyre couldn't have done that.....
Bit of a weird one!
