One tyre on a lean
-> 206 Problems

#1: One tyre on a lean Author: deebee, Location: Birmingham PostPosted: Fri Mar 09, 2012 8:47 am

Went driving today, nothing really happened, but when i got back my mates pointed out my back passenger side wheel was at a angle? it was worse then the other side and i remember having a thread problem with that tyre also. Could this cause it? Plus I wondered if camber actually helped the car Smile

Your rear axle could be shot or its been bashed into a curb at some point dependent on if the wheel is in at the top or bottom, could be other things too, take it to a garage.

Sounds like the axle is shot and needs replacing.

If I remember right you can't get camber on the 206

Or if you go sideways into a roundabout Laughing Wink

Probably between £300-£600 for a refurb or over a grand for a new one at pug (although that was for a 180).

Check fleabay.

I haven't done either, i haven't jumped at 70mph nor hit anything and its the other way round its not the bottom in its the bottom out and top goes in as if something has hit it at the top?

The thing is i wouldnt expect the wheels to point in towards the bottom if the bearings in the axel were shot, garage time me thinks.
