Steering wobble
-> 206 Problems

#1: Steering wobble Author: woodthorpe1717, Location: Lincoln PostPosted: Tue May 27, 2014 5:32 pm

Right I've had a look on the other posts and I can't find a salution or the same issue so here goes.

I have a 53 plate 206 2litre HDI SW (my super family wagon)

Anyway, if I'm travelling my speed (even <10mph) my steering wheel wobbles. Not just a little bit either, it goes maybe inch to 2 inch from side to side.
Steering fluid full, wheels balanced, identical tyres, no bulges etc, tracking bang on, recently had 2 new CV joints (issue started before fitting).

I DO have an issue with pump as when I go round a long bend or roundabout my steering pulls back, this can only be described as like a force feedback arcade steering wheel.

Could both symptoms be connected? Is it possible to bleed pump system and how?

I've tried to give as much info as I can but if I've forgotten something please ask because I need this sorting and garages cost lots of pennies.

Cheers all

have you checked your wishbone bushes? mine went a while ago and it was like being in a the middle of a tug of war until I changed them, other than that not too sure bud

Ok so all bushes are fine. Can only think it has something to do with steering pump. Can these be bled to remove possible air pockets?

I had something similar, had the lower wishbones , the top suspension bearings replaced (which had totally rusted and seized) , and the steering rack replaced.

Is the steering rack a big job? And can it just go like this without prior symptoms?
