Post subject: | rubbing when turning left....but hasnt always? |
hello my white runabout fiesta is now rubbing when i turn left it, ive changed a number of things on it recently but have no idea what it could be its had a new cv joint on the left side, and front anti roll bar....... since the noise started ive had new tyres, and new track rods fitted but still this noise it doesnt feel like its rubbing on the arch liners and since i fitted the roll bar this never happened until 3 months after, i also had new front shocks fitted then 2 days later the noise started....it has since passed its mot....im wondering if something is catching the rack? it has standard fiesta si 14inch alloys and is lowered 40mm on gmax shocks and springs, im really consfused please help me! ![]() |

being lowered makes the shocks wear out quicker, but you have had the track rod end changed aswel, its prob the tracking being altered, ive had mine set as square instaed of toeing in slightly and its sorted the problem, and the car drives nicer now than it has in a long time |
