Simon B 3 Posted September 20, 2006 Ok, I havent driven my car for a couple of months properly, but took it out yesterday and today for a drive to work etc, and have noticed something which feels odd! Essentially what it feels like is.... if im going round a corner / roundabout at normal speeds (off throttle) when i apply the throttle upon coming towards the end of the corner, the car seems to attempt to steer more into the corner than when off throttle?? Its not hugely violent, but its certainly noticeable as it kinda unsettles the car a bit Is there anything that springs to mind that might cause this? As far as im aware, no changes to the car have been made since the last times i was driving it :S Interested to hear what you guys think............. Thanks alot, Nige Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simon B 3 Posted September 20, 2006 Well, only if something has broken / altered to make it apparent as its not been like this before...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted September 20, 2006 sounds like the wishbone bushes are getting a bit sloppy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon B 3 Posted September 20, 2006 Maybe!! Anyone any other suggestions? I figured it would probably be some bushes have died or something.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon B 3 Posted September 22, 2006 Just to clear this thread up for anybody who happens to come across it whilst searching, my problem WAS the wishbone bushes! I just had a new pair of wishbones fitted (as my garage could get them today for £98 the pair) rather than mid next week for just the bushes... and the car is spot on again! Cheers!!!
