Recently had my ball joints replaced. I had been noticing that my steering wasn't normal - a bit of play and not correcting like usual. I bought a steering damper and asked the shop to replace it when replacing the ball joints. When I got the car back, I had it aligned as suggested. Even after the alignment, the car drove like it had a mind of its own. Steering wheel would turn slightly on its own and one time the car actually rocked from side to side like a boat in beam seas. After looking underneath the car, I think the steering damper was installed backwards ... but I can't find a picture of the underside of a 126. Questions are: (1) What is proper orientation of steering damper? The damper has a "bulbous" end ... does this end go closer to the wheel or more toward the center of the chassis? (2) If it is installed incorrectly, would it cause the symptoms described? Or does the orientation not matter. (3) If not the damper, what else could cause the symptoms described?
