Hello,

when driving above 50mph teh car slighltly swims when steering.

I checked the subframe but that is totally sound.

I noticed however that one of the front wheels is out of alignment, ie. they are not parallel. Can that be it?!

Would be great if you had any ideas.

thank you

Daniel

The idlerbox is very often the mistake.( on all Fulvias)
The feeling is, that the car changes under acceleration or
braking the direction and makes an offset of 1-1,5 meter.
It´s very dangerous and not to joke with it.
One of my friend detroyed on an accident his coupe.

So, be carfull

bye
