Hi i am having a problem with my steering...!!

When turning corners left or doing anything that involves a left turn it feels as tho the car wants to pull me sharply in that direction but does not do so when going right !! This happens either when changing gear then accelerating or sometimes just when cornerig left in general. I have replaced my rear axle as was needing done and thought this was maybe the problem but wasnt lol i have replaced all front end suspension parts aswell ie strut mounts , springs , pads disks , wishbones , droplinks, track rod ends , cv joints , tracking also done , lock stock the lot aha but this sudden sharp tug to the left keeps happening and is starting to b a little dangerous !! Im thinkin mayb the steering rack or something along those lines but there doesnt seem to b any play in the wheels as i had it to a mechanic chek my front end as was told could b my hubs (wasnt)and said the front end is and i quote SOLID !!

Any help on this would b grately appreciated thanks x

Thanks! Took mine in today. They said it could be the shock absorber mount but not 100% sure!

Try the rear wheels for play. Sounds like the rear axel causing problems with tracking. With a clear view of the rear wheels from behind, does one lean in at the top ???

I just got the rear axle fitted a few weeks ago and is fine..!! There seems to b a bit of play in my drivers side front wheel and is possibly my ball joint/wishbone so going to replace both just to make sure :D.. Thanks
