I have just taken delivery (June 25^th) of a Fabia Monte Carlo 1.6tdi 105 , it’s a great car but has a tendency to for the steering to drift / wander to the left slightly if you don’t hold the steering wheel (not my normal style of driving) It won’t centre its self in a straight line needing a small amount of pressure to keep the steering wheel neutral . It is not just road camber causing this as it does it if you drive in the centre of the road (when its safe to do so) . I have checked tyre pressures and they are all spot on. The garage told me its due to the small chassis and large wheels but they offered me a drive in their demo Monte Carlo (same engine) and it did not do it. I accept cars can be affected by camber but all cars I have driven need significant camber to have any effect.

Have any other owners had this, is it something I just need to put up with, as it would be easily ignored, but it’s a brand new car.

Your help / advice would be greatly appreciated.

Took Scott a while but he did sort it.

As Marcusfordus said, your best bet is to look at the link to the thread first. PM also sent that might help you out

Be wary of having the tracking checked at a main dealers, they usually stuff it up.
