steering wheel not straight.. was yesterday.

[saxova]

As title.. put all new suspension components on the sax.. got it tracked a week or 2 ago. was perfectly straight.

just drove home from gym.. and its a inch over to the right.. wtf?

Not hit anything.. nor drove fast.

Ill check everythings tight tomorrow, but anything else to look for/at?

Spankssss.

was it tracked after you put the suspention on?

i know on mine i didn't do the lock nut up on the track rod properly (thought it were tight) and that shifted the tracking slightly.

Yeah was done after all new parts, and not been taken off since

Ill check the nuts are tight.. weird one!

Put your steering lock on then have a look at the front of the car to see if the wheels are dead straight.

Putting aside something being loose and moving out of adjustment for a second - have you checked for a slow puncture? Might be worth checking tyre pressures first I reckon mate.

As above tyre pressures can play a big part in where your wheel sits

+1, my old vtr had a slow puncture and kept adjusting the steering gaitro to make the wheels and steering wheel straight, when i found out what it was, i replaced the tyre, and my steering wheel was a half turn to the left. quite a daunting outcome for such a small (common) problem, especially if you had to turn out of the way of something

I'd say tire pressure as well , my car had a slow puncture on the steels and kept pulling hence i had to have the steering wheel to the right to keep it in a straight line.
