Rough ride
Anyone experience hard jarring sounds coming from the front when going over bumps or dips? Almost like there is no suspension or smooth remount on the shocks/struts. Tires are 235/40/18. Not a lot of rubber but even with stock rims/tires still felt the same. Could it be struts or engine mounts? It’s just not smooth over bumps.

Re: Rough ride
I just purchased the car recently. I honestly have no clue. It’s just super rough over bumps. The loose change in my coin tray shakes. Lol.

Re: Rough ride
then full suspension inspection is warranted.
struts, control arm bushings, mounts, rods, ball joints, etc

Re: Rough ride
What did you drive before this? The suspension on the Civics seems to be a bit firmer than some other cars, you may just not be used to it.
