Hi all, Long time no chat! Back in a 206 again, We picked up 52 Plate 1.4 hdi with 89k, We knew it needed the tracking doing and two new tyres on the front which we have had done! But now it pulls to the right when changing gear, We have taken it back to make sure the tracking was done right and watched them do it and both tyres looked at the same time and all is good. It's odd has it only happens when changing gear.... When driving it it don't pull to the right or left. Only when changing gear! As anyone else had this problem before? Many thanks in advance.

Does it pull when pressing the clutch (don't change gear) out of interest?

Yes, it veers off as you dip the clutch to change gear.
Thanks for your reply!

I'm getting it looked at by my local garage but they can't fit it in until 12th

After getting underneath the car and giving the bushes a wiggle with a bar, it turns out it was the wishbone bushes causing the fault!
Changed the wishbone yesterday, and problem solved!

Thanks for the advice guys!
