Thats what i was thinking thanks Im going to take my car to a few more places

thanks for the helpful info the shop i went to gave my a price of $900 for the Monroe to be installed he has to order them. the price seams a bit high to me. I went to Monro Muffler

I bought this car about 5 months ago and I love it. Its a very easy car to drive and i feel so in control. It feels so odd to drive my moms 2014 Mazda CX5. I feel like the cars driving not me. The one thing im having an issue with is the very bumpy ride. The steering wheel is also much harder to turn. I feel every imperfection in the road. My car has 134,000 miles on it so i thought maybe the suspension is wearing out. my moms car glides over bumps and pot holes like there not even there but in my car there bone jarring. So i went to have the suspension and steering checked out and he said the power steering fluid is dirty and needs to be flushed and put synthetic stuff in. he said my shocks are not leaking at all but could just be warn out. he gave me a price for 4 new ones. the Monroe shocks he said are good quality comparable to the KYB GR-2 struts but i read they give an even more stiff ride then the oem struts.. Is there anything i can get that could give me a slightly more comfortable ride? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I bought this 2002 Subaru Legacy Gt Limited about 5 months ago. it has 134,000 miles on it. I only just passed my drivers test about 6 months ago at the age of 22. The reason I got it so late is because i had a fear of driving. My moms Nissan Cube increased my fears because i really hated the way the car handled with the steering and gas peddle feel. because it had a cvt tras i felt there was a delay when i push the peddle down to when the car started accelerating. also the steering felt like it was not connected to the tires. I just did not feel like i was in control with that car. With driving this car over the last 5 months i have now come to love driving. the steering and handling is awesome and the car actually goes when i hit the gas. its got some really good acceleration. I hate sun glare so the tinted windows are a big help. Although probably not legal. They were tinted when i bought it. One thing i dont like is the very bumpy ride. a small bump is like a huge pot hole. I feel everything. some bumps are bone jarring. its kinda like riding in a school bus. the steering is also a bit stiff. There are a few parts i need to replace or fix my struts and tires. Im going to buy new rims as mine are really faded(they were gold). I need some paint and dent work done as well as my spoiler fixed.
