Default Car Rocking Back & Forth
03. After I come to a complete stop, the car rocks back and forward for 1-2 seconds. So far, people have suggested mounts, among other things, but tranny and engine mounts look good.

Has anyone else experienced this? Just looking for some direction to start troubleshooting.

+1 struts are worn out
The OEM LS430 struts are so good, even when they are worn out they still ride pretty good, so many people dont even notice they've gone bad

Thanks. This is a UL, so air suspension. haven't removed wheels to look for oil etc. Just assuming they are probably original. Will likely just convert to regular oem shocks.
