Hi folks,
Hope you can help with a steering problem I've had recently. The car is pulling to the left and is wearing the inside of the front offside tyre only. I had the tracking adjusted this week and it seems to have improved it but not entirely cured the problem. I've moved the worn tyre from the front to the back to prevent further wear.
My JTD has 57K on the clock, had new shocks and springs a few months ago and was fine until a few weeks ago. I took the car to a local garage to try and find the cause and they discovered the nearside tie rod end had not been re-tightened after the last garage had adjusted the tracking when I got a set of new tyres.
I put new drop links on last weekend which also made no difference, and tyre pressures are all fine.
I don't know where to look next as the garage found nothing wrong...
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help.
