Hi folks,
My first post here. I'm in the market for an '02-'03 C2 (haven't driven a C4S yet, so may change my mind! .

So, I drove a C2 yesterday, and noticed that under acceleration, the car seemed to pull to the right? A bit like a front wheel drive car having steering torque? Car had 57k miles.

Could this be from worn control arm or trailing arm bushings, or something different? Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

uneven tire tressure, wheel alignment etc

 

^ Yup.

You're not going to get torque steer like that from a rwd car. Something is definitely off.

 

Wheels toe out under acceleration, front & rear, alignment should be set in anticipation of this & prevent pulling to the side. Excessively worn suspension parts can amplify this tendancy. Check inside edge tire wear on all tires especially the front passenger side (RF).

 

Ok, got it. Thanks for the info, appreciate it!

 

Prob alignment or tires, but I've driven a c4 and they do have more torque steer than C2.
