had this for a little while now but to be honest its only happened twice
sometimes when i steer left say coming round a round about my wheel kinda seems like it sticks an the back end becomes twitchy (first time it happed i spun about 180 degrees) now am not speeding going considerable slow actually, it just seems like am turning the wheel to much for the turn but am not if you get me. i believe my tracking needs done could this be causing it?
any help would be appreciated
just some extra info its a mk2 vtr an it isnt lowered, tyres are fine all yokohama's with plenty of tread

alrite fella

i think its either your tracking needs doing OR worst off it could be the track-rod ends themselve which might be worn and have play

to check if the trackrod ends are ok, just unlock the steering, dont start the car and move the wheel left and right, it should be stiff/secure with no play

cheers mate
av had one of the track rod ends replaced before end of last year, suppose it could be the other one, i also had the tracking done a few weeks ago but to be honest it came back out feeling exactly the same, the steering wheel turned to the right slight would be to drive straight
