Car pulls to the right

[LC]

My car seems to pull to the right when I'm driving, just wondering what the probable cause is, when I just take my hands off the wheel it drifts off, the wheels are covered in weights at the back and I'm unsure if some have fell off, what to you guys recommend

start with the basics first LC tyre pressures > alignment > brake disc runouts etc which can lead to the pad being in constant contact with the disc meaning that one side is under slight braking. with the potholes in the roads these days, it's pretty common to throw your alignment vastly out. wouldn't be wheel balancing, you'd notice a constant vibration and should be able to drive through it (the faster you drive, the lesser you feel it / hear it). always start with tyre pressures and move on from there

Are your tyre pressures right?

Uneven tread wear?

Alignment not correct?

Also if there's an issue with the rear (broken control arms/bent stub axle) causes the car to steer from the rear probably not that though as that's an uncommon problem

Check the simple things first, I find the only place that can get tracking spot on near me is a place with the 3d laser alignment machine as they actually know how to set up the alignment unlike most other mainstream garages who don't have a specialist, suspensions a black art to perfect

Hello gang the tyre pressures are very low at 30 all around on 17s but shouldn't be enough to cause a pull there's no problems with the brakes as far as I'm aware the disks and pads were done just before I brought the car although the MOT did say there was a slight fluctuation but when I press the brakes even with hands off the wheel it has no pull to a certain side the roads near me are absolutely horrible if not some of the worst I live in a somewhat rural area. But they have been digging and left the road in a state so I think it's the alignment out, think it's what killed my corsas steering rack too, just have to take it a bit easier in future keep my 55+ mpg up lol

I'll keep you posted going to look for a few good garages as I'm a bit far from my old one
