Stiff steering
Posted: Thu Jun 03, 2021 6:05 pm
2001 406 HDI estate.
I have a steering problem.
Between the straight ahead position and quarter turn either left or right the steering is quite stiff and struggles to self centre when driving, go past the quarter turn point and the steering feels normal.
Ive checked power steering no loss of fluid and definitely a difference with the engine running.
Top strut bearings changed around 18 months ago with new springs.
Bottom ball joint appears OK.
Bottom wish bones appear OK.
Front wheels were tracked about 6 months ago when new tyres fitted
Anyone had this problem and found the cause?
