Right, when im driving in a straight line and take my car out of gear or push down my clutch the steering wheel wobbles from side to side making the car swerve but as soon as I put acceleration down it goes?
Also when you turn you can hear a nasty grinding noise at certain points of turning.
Any help much appreciated.

grinding noise could just be snow cloging behind the wheel (scoop it all out and drive about) lol am thinking warped disc's, badly ballanced wheels (buckeld) something along thoes lines lol

It's barely drivable. Soon as the clutch goes down, steering wheel wobbles.. Changing gear is ridiculous
