Steering pulling

Post by macp »

My 16v steering pulls left and right with poor road surfaces or camber but on a smooth flat road it seems to track straight. There is no excessive tyre wear and the bushes were replaced. The wheels are standard and the tyre pressures are to tolerance.

Any ideas what it might be ?

It was tracking and it was well out of alignment

Having driven it for a couple of weeks now I think I have too much positive camber. What do you think ?
As you know I had the tracking done two weeks ago and although its better I still get some tramlining.
