#1: 206 pulls left/right when braking/accelerating Author: Klunk, Posted: Tue Mar 21, 2023 11:49 am ---- Hi - I’ve just bought a 1.4 HDI and it’s a great wee car and I’ve fallen in love with the 206. Only problem is a significant pull to the left or right depending on whether I’m braking or accelerating. This makes it a bit twitchy in corners and spoils what is otherwise great handling. I think the car may have had a wishbone replaced for its last MOT, and yet my first thought was that this problem feels like a suspension bush problem. Anyone had a similar issue?

I've been jumping from car to car too often and can't remember if it did or not now! My 206 is a 1.6 16v CC, I'll try and get back to you on this tomorrow as i need to put petrol in ... excuse to blast it down the bypass.- I remember having this happening on the motorway and it drove me nuts.

I changed both wishbones, track rod ends and drop links - full kit from fleabay. I expect you just need a new wishbone - the bolts can be a bit of a pig, but it's not a difficult job with an impact and the right spanner. Ball joint pinch bolt threads like to get damaged - I got mine from a local motor factor for around a fiver!
