Croma 1.9jtd Serious wobble under accel. & power steering drops out - PLEASE HELP!!
Hi all, I have a lovely 06 plate Croma 1.9jtd with a couple of niggly issues - firstly the car wobbles side to side under acceleration, either heavy or light between 30-55mph. This seems to stop when you dip the clutch or lift off accelerator. Ive had new front and rear tyres fitted and balanced, other than swapping the front for the back wheels, is there anything you guys can suggest may be the problem?
I thought it may possibly be driveshaft or engine mounting related, its done 130k and there are a few whirs and clunks when you boot it hard mainly exhaust shield sounding but other than that the car drives spot on..........except sometimes on low revs the power steering drops out for a few seconds, really dangerous when my little wife is driving it, I can barley move it let alone her!! Any suggestions for either issue much appreciated as I dont want to get rid of her but cant afford to spend an awful lot investigating into her problems!!
Thank you in advance
