98 Deville rear shock noises and swaying back and forth
Hello,
I've attached a photo of one of the rear shocks. They both look like the picture. They bang and knock while going over bumps. The car also sways back and forth something fierce at speed. When I first turn the key on or start the car, I can hear the compressor kick on and run for about 5-10 seconds. Is it possible to spray soapy water over the air lines and shocks to see if bubbles form to indicate a leak? How do I narrow down what the issue is? I do know what a bad strut/shock sounds like, but I'm not sure if it could be something else in the caddy.
