Lexus Is200 Pulling

[H8971]

Hi Guys,

I have a Lexus IS200 (X 2000), a couple of years ago I replaced the track rods and ends as I found they were seized during a steering geometry. Since replacing them and having the steering geometry done at my local dealer I seem to have had a issue with the steering is pulling both ways when driving in a straight line.

I have checked tyre pressures and they are all ok, I found that both ball joints had play so have replaced them but still have the feeling of it pulling, so much that I feel the car is unsafe to drive.

Does any one have any ideas as took the car of the road 2 years ago as my local dealer couldnt find a problem. I would love to be able to get the car back on the road so any help would be great.

Hi, if you do a search on this forum, you will find most people (including me) will advice you to take your car to WIM to diagnose and correct issues relating to tramlining and suspension geometry.

Whereabouts are you located?

I am in on the border of kent and surrey. The problem is that I don't feel safe driving it to WIM.

I have a similar problem. My car sometimes has a mind of its own. It will veer off in one direction and then in another direction.

I went to WIM yesterday to see Tony and my control arm bushes have gone! Might be worth a check.
