Question - Does every bad road feel like a roller coaster?

Thanks for the tips

1. No spring spacers that I can feel

2. Tire pressure good (I checked yesterday)

3. Alignment - hmmm this could be necessary the car has 19,000 miles.

I got an alignment last week, have quite worn back tyres and I can feel the
road even more than before I was at the repair shop.

And beleive me I know, here in Greece we have more than plenty of bumpy roads.

Oh- I'm new here--sorry I haven't introduced

Ps: Why does my tag say enthusiast?--how do I change that? Some help--thanks

kundorb, if you provide your VIN# in your profile, you will be noted as an owner. At least that's how it was when I registered last year.

BTW, I LOVE to feel the road in the S. That's one of the reasons I bought it. I was tired of the "numb mushy" feeling of driving other cars. I think FL roads have fewer potholes than many northern states, though.

Some replies...

I have looked and felt for the spring spacers, but you can never be too sure, I'll check again.

I love the feel of the road too!
But I feel the road in my Civic Si it is just this seems like something different.
BTW - it is really my wife's complaint. I wouldn't change anything that would hurt the performance or handling of this incredible car. However if the suspension is not tuned right, I sure want to know.

Or maybe my friendly dealer upgraded my OEM shocks/dampers/coils and put on racing shocks/dampers and coils for free....(oh wait I was dreaming again)
