Hi Peeps,

My steering is making a weird squeaking sound and feels light, when i'm going round corners atm. Almost like its not holding the road properly and feels unsteady.

Any advice/help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Pal

Toe out will cause the steering to feel weird. Smacked a wheel against anything lately?

Not smacked a wheel at all, but have gone over some pretty bad pot holes/manhole covers recently. I thought it may be something to do with the steering guibo possibly, but didn't think of the toe being out tbh. It defo feels weird, especially when going round corners.

Thanks
