Over-steer??
My wagon feels like it wants to keep turning into a curve, then when I turn out it seems to over-correct the other direction...which results in a kinda see-saw steering wheel action.....small, not a major move, but noticable. She runs straight down the road for the most part, very slight pull to the right, which I think is caused by the road crown. Front end is tight, no loose ball joints and the wheel bearings feel good, steering wheel has about 1" of play. I have tried different driving methods and it seems to prefere a pretty light touch on the wheel.
Now, I know the 300TD is not a sports car and is much heavier than what I normally drive (front wheel drive Chevy Impala that pulls itself through a corner)...but is this "wallowing through the corners" normal? As one post I read said "handles like a coal barge" just the way it is??
Think a new steering damper will help? Thought I'd replace that and have find a good alighnment shop pretty quick.
