Clio sport wandering

[iOllieSM]

As title says, I've checked tyre pressures and just changed both rear shocks but yet it's still pulling me all over the road when I let go of the steering wheel. I've been told the steering rack bushes are fine by a specialist, what else could it be?

Thanks in advance

Have you had the tracking done?

 

[iOllieSM]

I had it done about 2 months ago, wouldn't have thought it would be that would it?

Brake rubbing?

 

[iOllieSM]

How would I know if it's brake rubbing? It does pull a little certain ways when I brake aswell. Annoys the hell out of me!

Mine did the same a few weeks back, inner track rods were shot.

 

[iOllieSM]

Ah I've never changed those. How hard are they to do? Are they expensive? I did the track rod ends a while ago but not inners

Mine has been doing this for a while now.

• I've changed the bottom ball joints (they are the right 12mm ones)
• Track rod ends were changed about 18 months ago
• Switched my tyres over
• Checked my front and rear shocks - both sets are fine
• Tracking has been checked

I'm starting to think it might be the wishbone inner bushes.

Also I really need to add that my passenger side wheel spins almost CONSTANTLY and turning right is a understeering nightmare. Drivers side is fine. Also the car stops in a perfectly straight line.

If you have one wheel spinning and the other is fine, could you not have a diff problem?

I seriously doubt it. If that were true they'd be a lot of noise. I think it's spinning the passenger wheel because that driveshaft is shorter.
