I have the same complaint. I have a 01 from new and it rides like a truck!
I did a little research and found the 01 Cadillac Deville uses the same front spring as the Intrigue but the strut is slightly different. However the strut has a B5 body so it should bolt right in.
The Monroe Quick strut is easy to install. I was wondering if anybody tried this
swap?
#12344 of 12345 blower motor won't turn on

The blower motor in my 99 intrigue will not come on. I have replaced the blower motor and the blower motor resistor, but the motor still won't come. Running out of ideas. Any help?

The intrigue rides hard because of its huge front sway bar which is the largest of all of the wbodys. I believe the springs are too soft.
Keep in mind that the intrigue came out in 1998 My and the impala in 2000my.
The problem with putting a very large sway bar on a independent front or rear suspension is that the bigger the bar the less independent the suspension becomes.
I found that the intrigue handled small bumps horribly but big bumps and dips fairly well.
