steering problem

[Type 100]

possible din ba ng kailangan ng camber correction? hindi parang hindi kasi pantay ang kain ng gulong. mas nauuna mapudpod ang inner side ng tires ko although hindi halata kung hindi titingnan mabuti

Yep, could be toe-in.

"Bump steer" - camber settings nga ata. Again, those should be remedied by a simple wheel alignment job.

Never heard of "bump steer." But I have heard of "bum steer," which in journalistic parlance means "nakuryente" or a reporter given wrong information by his source.

"Bump steer" is a term for the thread starter's symptoms that I've read about somewhere.

Let's say the vehicle in question has excessive bump steer. When the vehicle is travelling in a straight line and the front wheels encounter a bump in the road, the tendency is for the said wheels to develop play in the milliseconds that they lose contact with the road, and "steer" themselves at an angle instead of going in a straight line. This is happening without any input from the steering wheel.

It's just a suggestion. I think it can be cured by alignment too, though.

yung uneven roads ba na sinasabi mo ay yung parang W yung hugis ng kalye parang wave dahil sa dumadaan na mga overloaded vehicles at di maganda quality ng pagkakaaspalto or semento (thanks government )?

[hahnvin]

uneven kasi yung iba bagong latag ang aspalto and yung iba hindi pa tapos. minsan sobrang lakas ng kabig kaya delikado kung mabilis ang takbo

[170kphlang]

ah kala ko yung dinescribe ko yung tinutukoy mo kasi kapag ganun natural talaga na kumabig mag isa lalo na kapag mas malalim yung pagkalubog, kaya ang solusyon ko is idaan yung gulong sa nakabukol na area nung kalye para dretso parin

[hahnvin]

minsan kahit hindi malalim ganun pa din. basta may uneven surface kakabig yung steering wheel. dati kasi hindi naman ganun

[170kphlang]

ah ganun ba, well tama yung mga suggestions na nakapost above.. first thing to do is check your tire pressure, pag ganun parin, pa wheel balance, then kapag ganun parin, wheel alignment na( pero check mo muna kapag kumakabig sa kaliwa or kanan kapag tumatakbo ka ng medyo mabilis around 60-70kph or minsan ang kabig pag nagppreno ka). check mo din kung tama ang upod ng mga gulong mo lalo na sa harap

normal lang naman na gumalaw ang steering wheel kapag nalulubak., lalo na kung hindi power steering. ang hindi nomal ay ang sinasabi mong wear sa inner side ng tires. better bring it for wheel alignment. duon makikita nila kung may kailangang palitan sa under chassis bago gawin ang alignment
