Title: More Car Help Post by: Jedwick on October 01, 2007, 03:14:14 PM I've just smashed into a kerb quite fast and am a bit shook up, but i got my car home but the steering wheel was shaking all the way home, i looked at the wheel and there was a big dent in it so hopefully the shaking is just the wheel being a bit wonky but i was hoping someone might be able to tell me if thats a sign for anything else wrong?

ut tracking is almost definitely away and possibly a cv joint worse case scenario is your wheel falls off Title: Re: More Car Help Post by: Jedwick on October 01, 2007, 03:37:24 PM not too expensive then?
Title: Re: More Car Help Post by: bhoywonder on October 01, 2007, 03:59:17 PM not too expensive then? all sorted for a ton final offer Title: Re: More Car Help Post by: TheChipPrince on October 01, 2007, 07:55:14 PM Would it be fair to say if you sat by your car like in your photo (assuming thats you), tonight, you would not be smiling as per pic?? Title: Re: More Car Help Post by: RichEO on October 01, 2007, 09:37:24 PM Possible: New wheel, new streering rod arm, geometry check.
A decent geometry check where someone knows what they are doing is getting on for £100. You can get your tracking done for £30. You get what you pay for. If you go for a proper check then they will tell you if your wheel is buckled and if the steering arm or anything else is bent.
