hi i picked up an 06 doblo cargo 1.3 multijet a couple of months ago, and ive noticed that when you accelerate hardish the van pulls to the middle of the road, ive also noticed the inside of the tyre wearing unevenly, the guy i bought it from had just had the tracking checked, giving me the idea he knew something was wrong with the steering

im guesing its either trackrod ends having play and not holding the true line or steering rack, bit im not 100% sure

any ideas guys

cheers in advance
 
Wishbones maybe? I needed new ones at around 85000, and mine was pulling to one side under acceleration. The bushes wear, but it is apparently as cheap to change the whole thing as extract and replace the rubber bits.

Just an idea.
 
Agree, I am also inclined to think that this is a bush that has play in it in the wishbone. If you change it yourself don't tighten the bolts with the wishbone unloaded, but do it with the suspension at its normal running position. That ensures that the new bushes last longer.(y)
