90 pulling ????

(1/5) > >>

marjan:
Here is a strange one for all you experts out there.  My 300TDi 90 drives just fine when under power at 50/60 mph but when I take my foot off the throttle it pulls to the right and then to the left when I put the juice back on again.

Wondered if it could just be the Greenway Anaconda tyres flexing as they are a pretty aggressive tread and a bit twitchy on the road.

Any thoughts ???.

GREENI:
Bushes.....check 'em all.

extreme90:
rear trailing arm bush's
check both axle and chassis end,
but my bets on chassis end as mine eats um n does exactly what you say
and also you get rear steer  :evil:
it is however very fun to drive on road  8)

Mine does same as yours, dont think its bushes on mine as i replaced them all last year (inc bolts) and its only done about 3k since and it still does it.

i think on mine its the drive flange on the front right inc play in CV etc, there is a lot a play in it where all the others are nice and tight, drive flange so worn you can hear it click as i pull away/slow down.

i'll sort it out when it breaks  :roll:

the rear axle wouldnt allow it to pull that way,
and its so fractional between the difference in the take up of drive from pass to drivers side that it wont make a difference

i have to fit new trailing arm bushes on mine at least once a month

its rear steer to me this is
