AshBhp Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Check steering rack ends and shocks, if they are all good change front tyre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny g Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Tried getting it aligned after you've done the balljoints? Tyre pressures all ok? Is everything ok at the rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JnrEast21 Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 havnt had it aligned yet, everything is fine at the back and the tyres are all fine... well confused!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 If you've changed the ball joints lower arms and bushes etc , it will probably need a alignment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Do the idicators still work?? always worth checking as bmw's don't seem to use them..lol As said above check all that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 have you checked the rear bushes ? that can also give you stabilty problems ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I'd get the alignment done 1st then check the indicators, mine dont work on my Beema either If the cars still all over the place after youve checked everything else check the dampers are okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
