On my 306 HDi i have more lock to the left than the right. Im not really sure what it is, it passed MOT ok so im guessing that it not too bad. Maybe ill have to change the rack at some point.
Any advise would be helpful
Thanks

Is the steering wheel central when driving straight ahead?
I'd assume its a tracking problem tbh.

How much we talking here? Like a whole turn? Someone could of had the wheel off and put it back on a whole turn out, which is pretty dreadful on there part.
Doesnt even own a 306.

Agreed its not good!! Its nearly 3/4 of a turn, surly tho the track rod ends would be fairly equal in length, else i could understand it if one was screwed right out and the other right in.
When driving the steering wheel spot on central.
Thanks

Do they sit differently on the subframe then?? that would explain the lock issues.
