Harsher ride during cold season!

Okay folks ??? For the last couple ride, my rear shocks seems stiff; so I felt the road's roughness on my spine. Also the front seems to bounce hard too! My 05 S40 is only 9 months old is set on 2nd setting. Does anyone have the same sensation when riding in the cold weather? I hope that it's just my imagination Roll Eyes

Shock and fork oil is thickened by the cold air. Also, your tire pressureswill drop roughly 1 PSI for every 10 or so degrees F of temp drop. Check/top off the tire pressure more frequently in the winter.

Tire's pressure is always kept at 29 front and 33 rear. I thought the same thing about the oil's property in cold weather. Thanks WD
