Ted7 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Ok, I'll try to explain that the best I can. When I go straight ahead, my steering wheel is straight. If I turn right, then go straight, my steering wheel is 15° tilted to the right. If I make a left turn, then go straight ahead my steering wheel is normal again. Alignment has been made, didn't fixed the problem. When I turn the steering wheel there is no suspect sound (no "clongs" nor whatsoever). If I go straight and release the steering wheel, the car doesn't move from its trajectory... Question: Is there something to tight between the steering wheel and the rack and pinions? Is it a problem with rack and pinions? Thank you in adevance for your help T7

Check steering column for binding and inspect two "universal" style couplings on steering column.
