- Tue Jan 01, 2013 9:17 pm #323080 Hey guys, so I'm not too sure whats going on but whenever i'm driving (doesn't matter at what speed) my car would randomly just jerk to the right (steering wheel does a full 180 CW, car jerks to the right). This comes and goes and occurs randomly at random times. Does anyone know how i would be able to fix this? Help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

- Wed Jan 02, 2013 12:07 am #323083 what have you done to your suspension?? because aftermarket coilovers will give you bump steer if you are to low.

your car is your story, dont let someone else write the book.

- Wed Jan 02, 2013 7:38 am #323130 I've lowered my car on aftermarket coils, however it hasn't been a problem until recently. I do have a camber kit as well, but i haven't installed them yet, would that be a problem ? Because i've checked everything, and gotten them all replaced with an alignment afterwards. Thanks.

It is similar to bump steer. Is it a power rack or manual rack? And do you know when the last time any of the suspension was replaced? I.E. Ball joints and bushings etc.

- Wed Jan 02, 2013 9:20 pm #323174 sounds exactly like my old subaru... turned out to be a very bad CV axle. i guess it would be spinning and all of a sudden catch and bind up and jerk the car to the other lane. when i took it out to replace it it was pretty much locked up it had no flex to it at all wouldnt move like they are supposed to at the joints.

Is your car slammed-yo and bottoming out?
