Shaking Steering Wheel

Blue_Eyes

Hi all. My steering wheel is shaking really bad at the moment and pulling to the left. I take it this is down to tracking or could it be something else ?

vocky

could be a worn ball joint or buckled wheel dunno..

Thanks for that ,can I ask what would happen if I didn’t get it fixed and kept driving, What’s the worst that could happen?

Blue_Eyes

with the ball joint i mean

vocky

worst case it will break :shock:

but generally most people replace them before that happens as a little wear causes a big vibration :roll:

I would first get the wheels balanced, whilst they have the wheels off ask them to have a quick look for any obvious problems cheers..

I went down to the garage to get the wheels balanced and when he took the wheels off I said have a look at the ball joints and they both were fine but the tyres where in bits . I could see the white tread on the inside so I had to get two new ones, I got Pirelli P6. do you know if these are any good . And by the way there is no shaky steering anymore

Check that your wheels are balanced and tracking is spot on.
