My solara pulls to the right ?

Postby PiterNYC » Tue Mar 20, 2007 11:11 pm

For the last couple of days my solara is pulling to the right a lot but only after I make a right turn, everything is fine if I turn left, is it a alligment problem or something else ??

Thanks

when you drive straight does your car pull as well after turning right? or only after immediate right turn. did you happen to hit anything? that happend to my friend's grand prix and we found out it was a tie rod? or somerthing down by the axle that had snapped which caused his car to pull heavily to the right.. you can probably bring it to a tire shop and have them check it out for you.. good luck man.

my best bet is something broke maybe and it just needs to get realigned.

Could be anything, camber, toe or whatever else...i'd suggest get that alignment done and see if they can't fix it...

Don't forget to check your tire pressures too. This can cause pulling, but I don't understand why only after a right turn. That's funky.

My guess is steering rack or maybe the power steering system (pump, hoses, valves).

I did alignment after lowering, my car was pulling to the right but just a little and now it pulls a lot and only after a right turn, if I turn left everythings fine, how can I check if the steering pump is all right and where is it located ? And do I need camber alignment kit ?


Thanks guys
