Steering slightly sticks to left or right after full turn

Post by Danny Wilde »

Hi guys, thought I should do a separate post for this rather than inserting it in an older post regarding another steering issue..

My 6 has developed a new steering problem. After making a full steer to the left or to the right the car stays slightly steered in either direction :-k, then it evens up after further slight steering (in either direction) while going straight. Just as if it kinda "sticks" to the left or right for a while after a full turn... Does it sound familiar to anyone of you?

One year from now I have already completely rebuilt both front and rear axles and driveshaft, maybe there's still some part that needs replacing?

Thanks again for your precious help :D

Have you looked to see the condition of your steering box mount?

Hi tschultz! thanks for your feedback, one of the steering box's mounts had cracked a while ago and I got it fixed, so the issue must be caused by something else... Have any clue? thanks again :-)
