BeckySwansea Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 does anyone know why sometimes my car just suddenly drifts to the left and it does it everytime I change up gear?
silvershaddow Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Scorts aren't particulaly great on torque steer... might be it.

AutomodellistaGT Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 oes it steer to the one way when you accelarate and back the other when you lift of> if it does then its a ball joint in the suspension thats worn and its quite serious
greeneyes25 Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Mine does this too Becky, does yours also wave about the road at high speed or bumps, might be the tracking or arms (wishbones)
ANDYC Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 probly just the good old lower arms / ball joints for a cange
Harvez Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Torque steer . . . . oh yes its all about the swerving down the road !! Mine steers left on accel, and then right when off the power Was thinking today when i took some bird out for a drive, she must think im the worst driver ever cause im always going from one lane to anuva
BeckySwansea Posted September 8, 2005 Author Posted September 8, 2005 Thanx Guys will take it to a garage to get it sorted!!
sidrick Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I's certainly not torque steer on an Escort unless you're packing decent power.Worn ball joint is my opinion.
