	have you checked your tyres, when mine are worn down to 3mm, the rear can produce a wobble, and roughish ride. The caramel liquid may be some of the original wax that is used and injected into cavities of the car. I had an e30 that did this when new, and after it had been used, therefore was hot, and runny! It was coming from the leading edges of the bonnet at the time, a sod to clean off the body though!

	well for a start, what on earth are u doing driving an Evo slowly??? If it only wobbles at low speeds then put the pedal to the metal. I have a 97P Evo Convertible and I have also notice this wobble when tyres are nearly finished, but i've had a few coupes and they never did this, maybe it has something to do with the flex that all convertibles have? As for the roughish ride, that I am almost positive is because of the lack of its rigidity. We cant have it all.
