hello everyone, i'm a new bee to the forum.
in jul08 i bought an 01 3.0 roadster 75k miles. the car appears well maintained, glossy black paint, clean engine and the interior appeared well taken care off.
i've wondered about its braking/handling and steering manners. it difficult to steer it in a steady straight direction and it feels the steering is a tad unresponsive. a bmw trained mechanic replaced the leaky rack and pinion with re-manufactured oe, a complete wheel alignment and the front rotors were replaced. these improve the cars steering but there are unpredictable occasions under moderate braking, the car steers erratic - it sometimess pulls left or right, and road bumps shudders (up/down-left/righ) the steering wheel. if anyone experience these symptoms what was done to remedy them. thanks. |
