#1: Ok Slight Jolting when turning full lock :S Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Mon Jan 14, 2013 9:24 am ---- I have recently had my car in for repairs including having both front top mount struts replacing. At first i thought that this would solve the problem but it has not. when i turn full lock to the right both forward or reverse the front wheels are jerking like going over loose gravel etc. my other thread has died so i thought id try again, the other people suggested tracking, or v belt?
any one able to help me so i know a rough estimate and guide when i call the garage?
thanks again

whats the long term damage leaving it alone? if it is these that are at fault

Time to let a knowledgeable mechanic have a quick drive and disgnose. It could be £20 - £30 well spent and there isn't a commitment to let them repair it. If you are lucky a few beers might do it.

I also had worn bushes in the lower arms but that affected driving and felt like the tracking was out.
