tango123 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 noo not had it tracked recently, doesnt seem to be out. could it be the wheels? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Turk Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Could be your tyres try some new rubber i used to get the same problem on my polo and a new set of rubber and tracking sorted it out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daniel_g Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Worn ball joints can give a kinda floaty feel to the steering. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tango123 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 i'll change both ball joints an see if it helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Can check them for play by jacking the car up and shaking / moving the wheel up and down checking for excess movement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tango123 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 ive done all that bud. when i had the track rod ends of i changed them anyway but that didnt work either. its that bad to drive that it makes me not want to use it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
