Hi Everyone,
My car seems to want to wander around a bit and pull to one side
or the other on anything but smooth roads. Its especially noticable
on roads where grooves in the tarmac have formed under the
wheels (eg at traffic lights). It doesnt just pull to the one side all the
time, so its not a misalignment in one steering component.
The archives note this can be a symptom of shot toe control rod
bushes ('donuts'). I did the test described - grabbing the wheel at 9
and 3 oclock and there is no noticable movement whatsoever.
I have nolathane donut bushes, standard TC rods, 240K struts with
the calipers behind the hub, tie rod ends, idler arm etc all replaced.
Any ideas what it could be causing the car to want to track with
the gradient of the road? Could the TC rods be torqued incorrectly,
so the donuts are incorrectly compressed???????
Sorry for the long post,
Andrew
