I have this issue with the car for the last couple months that when driving on the straight I have a feeling like driving in strong wind, it throws car to the right and left all the time without me turning steering wheel plus there is that little sound coming from the lower front I can't even tell if its right or left and it is really a quiet one. My friend took it for a ride and said that he didn't heard anything and it drives fine but I know its not. Car was serviced with new axels, new tires and allignment a mounth or two ago. Anyone had smth like that before? Any ideas where to look for?

[right][snapback]261199[/snapback][/right] It is happening only when cruising. I tend more to power steering problems. Anyone knows how to check ball joints, steering knuckle and steering linkage |

Make sure your sway bars are hooked up good too, that may cause a little but of a problem like that. Take it to a shop and have them put it up on a lift and look around.
