MrAnderson Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 hi all. New on here. My other half has bought an 05 plate street ka, very cute. I thought I would take it for a spin yesterday,just for research purposes you understand ! Anyway the steering feels a little loose compared to my megane. There is a couple of inches of play from the centre, and I felt like I was constantly correcting the car when I was on a bypass ( straight. 5 miles ) Is this a street ka thing, or is the a problem. Track rod ends, steering rack etc..? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 sounds like lower suspension (wishbones) have gone look here www.buypartsby.com or co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btmaldon Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 It does sound like a suspension issue but if the tracking is out out it will give you the same sensation. They are really prone to potholes knocking them off track, so have a look at the tyre wear. We had a new clutch in our SportKA and found it steered the same as yours when we got it back. Doing 60 was a nightmare. Got the front wheels tracked and its great now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAnderson Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hmm, I hope its just the tracking. Its going in for oil, filter plugs etc.. So i'll get them to have a look when its on the ramp. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
