To give you a more serious answer, I'd have to be honest and tell you that I've never really felt the suspension compensate for anything. For that matter, there's a loud banging sound in the left-rear side of the car whenever the suspension comes back out after compressing over a bump. Very loud, irritating, and it hasn't been figured out by my mechanic who happens to specialize in these cars. Go figure.

That may be one reason why so many 16 valve owners replace the rear self-leveling suspension with more conventional ones after they begin to have problems.
