Steering gitter??

[Eire]

Iv recently found a jitter in the steering while doing approx 60-70 the car seems to sway a tiny bit (like a boat motion) but very slightly!! iv taken off the wheels and hd a look at the bushing etc but nothing seems obvious! iv just had the tracking done and that bit seems fine? ever happen to any one here..any suggestions? it also steped out on me the other day and tho corner wasn't that bad... could it be rear shocks at fault??

Cheers

Until I read that you had problems with a corner I was going to ask if you'd had the wheel balancing checked? On my last company car there was REALLY bad feedback on the wheel at motorway speeds. The wheel was kind of vibrating... Something like £5 a wheel to get them balanced...

But I have heard of rear shocks causing problems like you experienced when you tried to take the corner. Bit of a noob with this but thought I'd post incase it helped!

I've got problems with my steering mate. I've only had the car a week and thought it was just tracking when looking at it as it pulls badly to the left. Tracking and balancing is bang on with mine so I've been told it could also be Track rod ends, bushes, suspension, shocks, mishapen wheel... etc... lol!

All I've done is start with the cheapest and worked my way up!! Dunno where your at in the country but if you have no joy on here try Specialised Renault Services in Nuneaton, they're really good! If your close enough that is.

Hope you get it sorted mate.

check your tyre pressures!
very important
also whip back wheels off and check rear shocks for leaks
easily noticable
