Hi all I have 2003 doblo 1.9 JTD, in a straight line it pull slightly to the left, when I turn both left and right just after I start turning the steering wheel it tries to pull back to centre, at a standstill and turning to full lock both ways it does not pull at all, could this be as simple as the wheels out of alignment?
Thanks folks
 
Thanks charlie got the tracking done today and wheels balanced, problem still there, not as bad though, keep turning the wheel its fine but when you turn and hold it in that position it tries to go back to centre, very much like when you go to full lock
 
Just another to try - not saying it's the likely cause but worth having a look.
Have a look at the bottom engine mount - attaches to the gearbox to the underside of the car approx. under the front passenger seat running parallel with the exhaust pipe.
Mine used to whip across and pull to one side. It was down the bottom engine mount rubber being broken in half. Momentum from engine caused the engine to swing about and with in effect, no bottom mount holding it, whipping action occurred.
Easy fix, brand new mount off fleabay in the region of £20 and two bolts. I found it easier to undo the exhaust bracket below the manifold - 3 bolts, easy peasy - to give a bit more room to get one of the mount bolts removed.
