Got a problem with the missuses ford Ka. When corner right the car is fine but when cornering left it feels like the car is weeving all over the place, as if the wheel is loose (which it isnt). Its generally worse when going in a straight line as the steering wheel seems like it wants to sit right light slighty, but if you correct it and put the steering wheel straight, it darts about the road (like torque steer)
1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

She says not, ive had the wheel off and had a pry with a bar on the both sides and both feel the same. Its really getting on my tits as she drives through fast country roads and its not really good when the car darts off to one side all of a sudden. Ive taken her in it today and drove it myself just to make sure shes ok. 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

My Focus went all leary and it was the anti-roll bar links. Never quite understood why but the garage changed them and fine since.
