Why is my Porsche sliding / pulling when cornering?

The feeling of sideways movement and having to regularly make corrections to the steering when cornering or on an uneven road surface is a classic symptom of failing shock absorbers.

However, it could also be a problem with worn bushes or poor alignment, both of which are less expensive to fix, so it is well worth asking a Porsche specialist to inspect your car before committing to changing the shocks.

OEM shocks used on Porsches typically have an expected lifespan of around 40,000 miles, but there are longer-lasting aftermarket versions available when you come to replace them.
