tilting grunting 850 wagon HELP

Post by bigmonkey »

I have just bought a 850 2.5 10v with 40k on clock. It has full service history and no major incidents etc.

However, I have noticed it leans to the right as though the suspension was lower on that side. Only by about 4-5 degrees.

Also the car shudders when engaging the clutch from stopped in 1st gear and occasionally gives a little groan. It has been serviced prior to my purchase.

Does anyone rcgnise these as faults that I should be concerned about? Should I ditch the car back to the dealer? :?:
