UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hello all.
technical answers a go-go have been found within this thread so already thanks for this. I own a much babyed( is that a word ) polo GTI and I love it very much. Where I live the roads are not kind to my polo and I recently clipped one of the kerbs around my area. After damning the local council to bits I tested my steering and the car seems to drive okay but the steering is now extremyl light. The feedback from the road does not seem to be the same either. Or is it my imagination???

you had a go at the council for your mistake? learn to drive 1st mate then you wont have any problems

Maybe have your tracking, etc. done. If your car is lowered like mine you might want to consider somebody with kit up to the job, although it does cost a bit more. I took mine to Demon Tweeks which was about £45, their kit has recently been upgraded - £30,000 worth of Bridgestone goodness, mine drives tones better ;D
