I would just replace all of the suspension plastic parts. They are pretty cheap and I'd bet that will fix it. Since it was pre-owned I'd bet those screws were takin in and out a lot and were loose to begin with. Once built you almost never need to take those screws out, so you should be good then.

I just saw on RC Champ's website some listings for what looks to be a NEW M-03M Suzuki Swift SP1600. See here:

Does anyone know what this is and what changes were made from 58368?

Might not be anything special but the translation does mention light chassis. Probably bad translation.
M-03M chassis adoption of wheel base 225mm > The chassis the actual car loading the motor onto the front in the same way, adopted the M-03M chassis which drives the nosewheel. As for the frame which becomes the framework of the chassis being light weight slim, there is a strength, the resin make monocoque type which also assembly cheapness pursues. Approximately it equipped lightweight upright, double wishbone 4 wheel independent suspension and the wheel base which is set to 225mm going hand in hand, sharp cornering high travelling stability is produced. Furthermore, total 8 equipping 1050 ball bearings which are in the bearing of the wheel axle front and back, you held down drive loss. In addition, the 60D radial tire where tread pattern is cut was installed on actual car similar 11 these spoke wheels.

Yeah, I read the same translation from Google. There is that sentence: "As for the frame which becomes the framework of the chassis being light weight slim, there is a strength, the resin make monocoque type which also assembly cheapness pursues." Just wondering if they decided to release a graphite chassis. Of course, with this translation, who the heck knows what "assembly cheapness pursues".
And did anyone else think it was odd that Suzuki translated into "sea bass"?

Hi guys,
I keep having this problem of the entire steering & servo section jerk to either direction (like the torque steer effect...) when throttling my M-03R.
I have checked. There are no blinding components in the entire suspension, steering assembly, the suspension joints are moving freely.
Any advice on how I can cure this problem? (Can't have the car jerking to one side everytime u throttle out of a corner...
)
Appreciated

kindly check that and if it is the problem please put in a shim in between the screw and the plastic (shim)came with kit . Also ensure shim size is smaller than the outer saver.Also you can use tlarge tensioner that comes with Tamiya servo saver and wrap around original plastic servo saver to induce return.(TCS/TAC legal
If not above must be the outdrivers coming loose. check that and use CVD's

I just talked with guy who import pit shimizu tire to Australia and he said they are testing new rubber but not much success yet. They may have something by later this year. Good to know at least they are trying to bring tires back.
