04 Megane Cab. Pulling to lefthand side

Unread post by jonathan.mccall »

Just bought 04 Megane Cab about 3 wks ago. Its pulling to the left quite badly. Ive got it checked for wheel alignment and tracking by 2 garages. The second (Renault garage)then tried 4 wheel alignment and its ment to be ok. Not!. They said it could be to do with the 19" alloys. But im not so sure. When the steering wheel is put so the wheels are pointing straight whilst sitting stationary, it turns slightly to the left. when driving it pulls to the left sometimes but not always, and its def not to do with the road camber... Any ideas! Oh Renault did a health check and they said everythings ok steering wise...

have you tried swapping front/rear wheels ?

Different wear patterns on the tyres for any reason is known to influence quite a lot on the steering.
Same with any rotation direction markers on the tyres.

How about the tyre inflation ?

I had thought of doing the tyre/wheel change and maybe should. The guy that sold me it told me he put new tyres on it 2 wks before i bought it. Worth a try though.
