94 C280 right wheel feels loose...
 
Hi All,

When the car is moving foward, all is fine when the brakes are applied. However, when in reverse it feels like the right front wheel is loose. I've looked under the car and nothing appears to be loose. What can cause this looseness feeling? Thanks in advance...

How can you tell it is the right wheel while you are driving? What makes you think that?

likely lower control arm bushings?

"Feels loose" doesn't help much as a description of the behavior. Best way to check for problems is to jack the front end off the ground and shake the wheels by hand. Sometimes it helps to jack up one side and shake the raised wheel. If you find looseness, then support the front up on jack stands while you slide underneath. Have someone turn the unlocked steering wheel or shake a road wheel while observing.
