| Re: 1.4 8v steering So if you have some steering lock on, move off the steering wheel tries to straighten up? It should due to the castor angle of the front suspension. All cars should self centre. |

| Re: 1.4 8v steering No it just tries to pull back almost stop as soon as i straighten wheels it moves off,it has before now stalled. But ive had air bag light on for ages the garage just says its a sensor it could cost me £200. Do you reckon it could be something to do with that?I noticed the air bag light came on after i put the wheel in full lock and i heard a noise like as if something had snapped! |
