Hey guys,
recently, i found my car totally unreliable for cornering
just days ago, i took a simple sharp turn and the cat skid
spun and hit the divider (bumper cracked)
i can understand if i had gone really fast, it was 40-50kmh
on 2nd gear.
I noticed this on highways too.
whenever there is a corner and slight uneven road,
the car is like trying to throw me off and i feel like
the back half of the car is not really holding the ground
i have changed drive shaft,steering rack, suspension mountings, steering bush
one thing i noticed i noticed is when turn the steering full either left or right
and then let go,the steering does not come back to correct position, its like it
something not balanced
using a putra and need you guys advise. I dont feel safe driving that fella right now
Hmm probably the simplest thing to do is check your wheel alignment first, since you said your tyres are still pretty new. Misaligned wheels can easily make the car handling nervous. But again, a car spun can be because of many other things too:
- still going too fast for that corner, and/or
- you entered too fast and then abruptly lift up the gas in mid corner, and/or
- braked too hard mid corner, and/or
- brake balance is too much at the rear which makes the rear locks up first, and/or
- the corner is off camber, and/or
- has a bump in mid corner that upset the car especially if you already have a broken damper/shock absorbers, and/or
- got oil/slippery stuff, and/or
- your steering input was too inconsistent/not smooth, etc2.
