[Corsa D 2006-2014] MOT Advisory - Slight Play in both front drop links

[danielbanks]

Hi Guys,

MOT passed about 29 Jan and in the last 3 weeks has started pulling a little bit to the left. Tyres are fine.

Advisory only states one thing:

"Rec slight play in both front drop links"

I know I'm in the place to ask, but can anyone tell me if this explains the pulling or what on earth it is?

Thanks.

Dan B.

Shouldn't cause it to pull. The drop links connect the anti-roll bar to the front suspension arms. Depends on model, you don't say which yours is. They usually start a slight rattle on uneven surfaces before they get bad. Slight play won't affect the steering.

Usual causes, tyre pressures, tracking, brake on one side seized slightly, damage to steering/suspension - hit a kerb or a pothole recently?

Corsa B models have a tendency to pull slightly to the left which is inherent and very little you can do about it.

Thanks Taurus. It's booked in to check the tracking next week. Might gets them to fix both things at once. It's a corsa d 07 club. Good little cdti
