Okay... so I took the car out to do a 70 - 150mph run on an open stretch in Mexico :) That went well... but when I gradually slowed down to 70mph... the steering wheel had a vibration in it that wasn't there before and the car seem to sense every little imperfection on the expressway... but the alignment was still on (testing) ... now the very next day in the morning... the car drove fine? Any hints as to what caused this...? It was hot out... ~100-109 (depending on elevation of the highway my gauge kept changing) degrees in the afternoon. Tires were hot... orrrr the ECU did something to the suspension after that high speed run? The car just felt unstable like I was driving on an old road....
