Hi all


I have a 92 Vitara LWB Auto and just in the last few days when I turn around say left hand corner the steering pulls to the left once in a straight line

Also happens when going out of a right hand and then go straight it pulls to the left

Tyre pressure 36 all round
No Power steering leaks
No gutter hits or large potholes

any ideas ?

First thing I'd do is invest in a decent wheel alignment... but go to someone you know. There's wheel alignments and wheel alignments.

At the same time, they'll inspect the integrity of your ball joints, etc. It sounds as though you have some toe-out in your front end to me...

Regards,

Adam

36psi :shock: that's some serious pressure in there although that won't be your problem. Get a decent alignment done to start with and then see where you're at. If that hasn't resolved it then most likely you have wear in your steering.
