Evening all.
I have just joined so this is my first post.
I own a 54 plate EP3 which I have had for just over 16 years.I’ve had no issues bar general maintenance over those years but just recently (last month or so) I’m noticing that the steering is feeling odd.I’m not particularly mechanically minded so please bare with me on my description of the issue.
The steering feels too precise, the slightest adjustment say for a gust of wind or an uneven road and I’m having to adjust again. Motorway driving has become hard work as I am constantly adjusting to keep the car straight, its only slight adjustments but she is not driving the way she has for the last 16 years.
I’ve had the track rod ends replaced last year for its MOT and the ball joints have been done because there was play in them.Tire pressure is as per manufacturer and the tires are fine.
It’s been in the garage for a diagnostic about the steering but they can’t seem to find anything amiss.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
