Hi all,
Currently with my ride, whenever I step on brakes, especially when coming to a halt, I can feel my steering tugging towards either left or right.
If coming to a halt from normal speed cruising, the tug can be, at times, pretty strong n obvious especially when I totally let go of the steering wheel and watch it turn to either side.
When I'm going at a pretty fast mode, I naturally become very conscious of this and will grip tight but there is this feel that the steering handling, just before the car comes to a complete halt, ain't as tight as I would desire.
Just went for a service at workshop, recommended ala tis forum, and they did notice that steering rack need some adjustment or replacement ( very expensive). Had it adjusted, to test it further before making further decision. Currently, I'm still experiencing these pulls.
Could it be these pulls are due the the road surfaces ( because they don't tug on a regular basis) or are they tires' problems (225/17) or steering rack have to change ?
Anyone out there who had such experiences and care to share ? Fellow drivers' opinions welcome.
Thanks in advance.
( Tried driving the other day with DSC activated, either it was physiocal or not, the handling felt better . Could someone help enighten what DSC ? Know it's something to do with traction...but could do with a brief lesson here. )
