Yea that's my issue, the ass is always bouncing over bumps, at highway speeds its not as bad, but around town, especially with road conditions currently on certain roads i drive regularly the back never settles properly and just bounces all the time.It's fine in my 2010. The ass is still a little unsettled sometimes over a bump though
I wouldn't say it's all the time or even something to be concerned about. The way you are describing it make it seem much worse than what I experience.
Mine is more the slop in the rear suspension has a weird transition as it loads up
Too much rebound and not enough compression resistance?
So your not having any issues with the shorter shock body of the B8 with stock springs?I feel that the shocks arent the problem and they they are actually spec'd pretty well for the stock springs. I could see stiffer springs in the rear being better. I should also disclaim that i have stock springs all around, the front struts are original with ~105 k miles on them and the rear shocks are b-8s with about 40k miles on them. so i have unmatched suspension to start with. the front actually feels normal other than the miles starting to show on the damping.
when i load up the suspension on a long sweeping highway ramp there is a point as i am building speed that you can feel the back end shift around and then settle in a slightly different attitude. i attribute it to the soft bushings in the multilink rear suspension. it could be some play in the smaller stamped steel arms as well.
