A friend has just bought his first defender (well it's his missises' car) anyway I took it for a drive as he was reporting a steering wobble and having driven it:
The steering a very light.
There is no play, the slightest movement makes the car change direction.
At 50mph the car feels skittish and scary!
Going down a road with variable surface the car pulls different ways as it hits different surfaces.
It is a totally standard 1999 TD5 other than...
If has 185/70 16 Wrangler AT tyres on disco1 alloys.
It's got 2 days short of 3 months warranty left so it'll be the garage's responsibility but it's always good to have an idea before you get there....
Could the damper be dodgy?
