I'm not much help mate as my car's RTABs were done before i purchased. Is it from a dealer? Presumably you could take it back under warranty?

Its probably the Rear Trailing Arm Bushes. I had mine done a few months back and it feels much better since. Same kind of feeling before hand, axle isn't well connected to the car feeling.

its worth adding the Simpson bush limiting kit when your doing the bushes its about £70 but makes a big difference

Oh aye, will second that. I've got the Turner Motorsport Kit fitted on mine, firms up the back end without compromising the ride quality too much.

just a note of interest took the rear arms out and the bushes were brand new so someone had already tried that but it was still horrible,put the limiter kit in unreal totally transformed it like a go cart now best £100 iv ever spent,so have some new bushes if anyone needs them lol
