Thnks Guys, Biglad, already replaced the front calipes as i thought that might be it Benny, i'll do it that way in the morning And Sir DD, yes, boat is the word!! at least with the left pull its more likely to end up in the ditch than oncoming traffic thanks for the thoughts

Hi All, Can anyone give me an idea as to the symptoms of the onset of steering box failure? I have a fair bit of play at the steering wheel at idle, the steering is pretty vague, worse than my old 300, she pulls left all the time, worse under braking. I adjusted the steering box at the top...
