 Steering pulling to the side When driving on flat road, the steering pulls a little to the right. If the road leans to one side the steering pulls to that side, but this is normal? The toe in/out is correct, I believe. Adjusted it, measuring with a home made contraption  Did no difference. I'm thinking it may be one of the front arms that are bent slightly so camber is wrong. Any idea what usually causes a 2CV to pull to one side? I guess I can easily check the camber angels compared to each other with just a string over the tyre by the rim?

Re: Steering pulling to the side How are your tire pressures and conditions?

Re: Steering pulling to the side I would check the camber the way you describe it.
Maybe you got in a ditch somewere in the verge of the road.

Re: Steering pulling to the side Or a brake blocking a bit on one side?

Re: Steering pulling to the side Brakes are perfect. I think I will start by figuring out a way to check the camber. It's quite expensive in the workshop
