Just a quick one ..

My aunties car failed on a few things .. track rod ends, light adjustment etc..

It also failed on - o/s + n/s front steering arm has relative movement at its fixing - 2.2.b.1h

What is this?

Cheers

 

sounds like track rod ends to me

 

hmm maybe - it does have offside track rod end ball joint has excessive play.

Worth changing both sides then?

 

As a tester myself we use that fail item to fail the track rod joint, which is what the track rod end screws onto, inside the rack boot! Chances are it's a corsa?

 

sounds like the inner rack joints are fooked as thats what we put down for them lol, most likly b a corsa ad guess

 

its the arm that goes from the steering rack to the track rod end and it fixes inside the steering rack gaitor. all vauxhalls are shite for these not just corsas and some renaults to

 

unfortunately you are wrong .. its a little 1.1 pug 206.

So it needs new steering rack or can the inner rack joints be changed?

Thanks for your replies soo far

 

ya u can buy these ends for most cars now makes life alot easier, euro car parts do most and are cheap

 

as i said its the track rods that have play and yea you can buy them for 206's

 

Right then, i have ordered all the parts from these guys - http://www.roadrunnerparts.net/index.htm they are local to me in South Wales and have never let me down, they have always had the lowest prices too .. even beating eurocarparts with there 25% discount code!! Worth a call if your after a few bits

Also, thanks for all the replies
