Steering wheel going NUTS!

[Mikeyy168]

Hey guys, driving to my girlfriends house today and my steering wheel starts going haywire. Left and right non stop and it feels like my wheels about to come off!!! Thought I had a flat tyre but they're fine...

I know the steering rack needs greasing cause I can hear it... I'm not sure what's wron with it... It's gonna be a scary drive home!

Any one have an idea on what's wrong?

[JOhnnyFD]

check ur wheels and wheelnuts if theyve come loose, tighten em up

[bennjamin]

have you have suspension installed recently ? Might be a loose or damaged tie rod end

[Mikeyy168]

All tightened. Haven't changed suspension either... =[

Ok so It fixed itself... I drove home. About 3km from home it starts actin up again. Now when I try to move the car it starts making all sorts of funy noises - metal grinding noises. Plus the car won't move... ='[ possibly clutch!!! =[

driveshaft?

we can really only take stabs in the dark,you need to check every moving part where the sound comes from

What was wrong with the drive shaft?

[Mikeyy168]

it was completely mangled and made sounds like no car should make ever. lol just hectic grinding and tinkering noises. first i thought it was clutch, then pressure plate or flywheel but it ended up being the drive shaft. thought my freakin wheel was going to fly off... >.<"

all good. its all fixed now. going to get a major service in a week or two!

Man what did you do to stuff a driveshaft on the street lol. Good that you got it fixed and it didn't cost too much. Does your car have many kms on it?
