- WHY STEERING WHEEL IS NOT STRAIGHT. STEERING WHEEL IS ON THE LEFT OR RIGHT
If you have a car that the steering wheel is not straight when you drive on a straight road, let say the steering wheel is to the left in stead of being straight or to the right in stead of being straight we will explain what can cause that. In most cases the steering wheel is not straight when you drive in a straight line because either the alignment is off or sometime is worn out on the suspension that can cause your alignment to be out of specs. We demonstrated how the steering wheel was to the left on this BMW instead of being straight but the same will apply if the steering wheel is to the right instead of being straight.

Try launching the car maybe that will straighten it out
A shot every time he says guys
I tried it. I am alcohol.
Im drunk
i’ll be in the ER

This guy sounds like he has a mouthful of water.
how many times did he say "guys"
Lmao
Or pasta
Glup glup gluys gluys
The car version of Cristiano Ronaldo lol
After the 17th "guys" and telling me that I need to check my tire pressure (duh!)
I couldn't bear it anymore. For his sake I hope he doesn't speak like that in real life. Bless him 🤣
You didn't cover why a steering wheel would be off-center if the issue is not anything to do with your alignment, suspension, or tires. My 2018 Passat alignment and tires are perfect, car tracks and drives straight as an arrow and doesn't drift either way, but to drive perfectly straight my wheel has to be turned to the right 20 degrees. Very frustrating, especially when the dealer tells you there's nothing wrong with it and won't acknowledge the crooked wheel!
Did you get it resolved?
A warped rear axle can do it too. I had that on an Abarth 500. Even just a mm out will be noticable and the rears can't be adjusted enough on most cars to compensate
Some cases you need master mechanics to fix stuff like this and it may require welding and most places just don't wanna deal with it. They will send u on your way if the car at least drives straight
a crooked steering wheel with a vehicle that tracks straight will be because of the steer ahead setting being applied to an already crooked steering wheel. If the wheel is locked straight and central and then the alignment is carried out and the steer ahead setting is verified, this issue will be solved. Basically, this will only happen because the steering wheel was not locked properly straight when it was aligned.

Him: GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS
This word 'GUYS', should be banned especially on RUclips.
Thats becuase his english is not to good , It happens alot then . They fill up gaps with ez words xD
Guys
I hit a pothole 2 weeks ago, the front left tyre blew and the steering was off. The tyre shop inspected the tyre and advised that there was no visible damage to the tyre, just the air had gone out of it. They inflated the tyre and did the wheel alignment. But the car was still pulling to the right when I let go of the steering wheel and the steering wheel pointed to the right. The tracking was done again, but the problem still persists that the car is pulling to the right. I do not know what to do next. It is really frustrating. Your video is really good and informative. Thank you
Any updates? Could be a suspension problem
@@muhammadtantowijauhari4688 Thank you for replying. No updates yet. They have changed a few suspension parts, but the problem persists. It's getting expensive now
What was the outcome? Could you not just leave as is?
@Shane_Finnegan I went to a different tyre shop to get the alignment done again. They also straightened the steering wheel as this was pointing to the right. My mechanic changed the front left shock, but the correct alignment sorted out the issue. The tyre shop advised that even a slight adjustment makes a difference. If you leave it as it is, the tyres wear quicker and the steering is off. The roads here are terrible. Potholes everywhere. Thank you for your interest and reply.
Thanks guys, well done guys. Great guys
6 "guys" in 6 seconds definitely ain't bad guys
Came for the fix, stayed for the guys. You sound like an auctioneer.
Steering misaligned is a very simple problem
Causes..:- the McPherson strut glide inside stephelococus strurtstduehsgsgs
Lmfao
cant we just straighten the wheels and take the steering wheel off then center it and put it back on? seems like a simpler solution to me
The input shaft on the steering wheel is likely keyed so that the wheel only goes on in one orientation So you probably can't do that..
Older cars you could, newer cars not.
Yea it's annoying. It would be so much easier if you could do that on modern cars.
But like we can really do this ?
I ran over something big and metal in my lane on the interstate near a construction area, and couldn't avoid it in time. Now, my traction control lights are on and my steering wheel alignment is off to the right and the steering feels more loose than it did normally. I hope it doesn't cost me a huge amount to fix. 2020 model car...
Figure it out same issues ??? Please thanks
My car is doing same thing how did you fix
@@divinelavette2269 oh yea it was a lot unfortunately, front crossmember needed to be replaced, traction sensors replaced, alignment, it cost me like 3500 that included a rental. It was a mess.
@@teammmx Wow ! I just went to get mine checked and i have so much and strut work it’s not just alignment 😔
@@divinelavette2269 yep, sorry it’s happened to you too! I’m extra careful when I drive now, scanning everywhere lol
"Guys'' slightly edging ahead of ''Okay'', its going to be very tight at the finish line!
My steering wheel is like 90° to the side. I had the rack and pinion replaced and when I got it back it was like that. Would it be likely it just needs an alignment?? I took it to a backyard mechanic, because that's all I could afford at the time. I didn't think it would be a big problem, and at first it wasn't, but now it shakes violently if I get to 30 mph...I just want it back but I don't know what to do!
Needs alignmemt
Same thing is happening to me what was your solution ?
My friend put me on to this vid for a drinking game I got drunk by the end just drink every time he says guys
Hey, when I let go of my steering wheel the car tracks straight, but my steering wheel is off to the left when holding it, if I centre the steering wheel it pulls the car to the right, any idea what is up ? I had tracking done, maybe it was a bad alignment?
MMX2 I have the same problem at the moment did you find out what it was?
@@JosePerez-lk5lr hi, I put brand new set of tyres on and it fixed it, cheers
My steering wheel have to be turned few degrees to opposite of where road is declining. Can it be suspension, ball joint or anti-roll bar? 8th gen Civic.
I bought a new Chev Equinox 7 years ago, and the wheel was pointed a little to one side right from the beginning. Equalizing tire pressure made it worse. The dealership said it was not a problem on a brand new car, and wouldn't fix it. Tire wear was even, acceleration was even. The tires were straight, the steering wheel was not. It's been a long time living with it, but can an alignment shop fix this?
I just bought a brand new Mazda CX-5 and I’m having the exact same issue.
@@duster123100 Check your brake calipers.
If they are seized it could carouse the issues to pull left or right.
Most wheel alignment places are rubbish at getting the steering wheel straight. I usually have to go back 2-3 times for them to get it right
@@BlatentlyFakeName I brought it to a local place and they had it straightened out in about 30 minutes for not much money.
Drinking game: Drink every time he says "guys"
Thank you for all the useful information
Guys

Hello, my steering is not straight. It is 13 degree off. Will this make tracking light come on? It is reading error "steering angle sensor impulse" Thank you (Y)
Same question but I don't know how many degrees it's off. I know I'm over turning my steering wheel. Just to turn a corner. I just got an alignment in october
did not once mention tie rod adjustment
Bro your a freaking life saver 🤝
Thank you guy.
2006 toyota Tundra Double Cab:
I've replace my front shocks, replace both of my outer tie rod, and got a alignment done. Still the wheel is off?
Any update? I'm having the same issue with a 2014 tundra
@@Undertheseaa94 I've done my second alignment with Firestone but they didn't fix it. I took it back in and complain and they did another alignment again but still didn't fix it. I complain "AGAIN" but this time the Firestone manager told me they don't know the issue and told me to just take it to Toyota.
At this point I'm pretty frustrated and haven't drive my truck much anymore. My brother in-law told me to find a legit pro alignment shop instead that are pro when it comes to alignment and I may go that route instead.
How much unaligned is the steering wheel? When you drive are you able to still maintain your driving straight or do you shift off the side?
For me I'm able to drive straight no issues but the steering wheel is not straight so when I do position my steering wheel I moved left about 10 degrees. I am not sure if that's safe or dangerous but definitely not normal and it's upsetting.
Chong I hope you find the solution to get it fixed soon
@@Undertheseaa94 my problem with my truck is that after the alignment is done everything is good and straight. But if I even drive more then even a miles the alignment will go back pulling to the left.
At this point it have to be something that's wrong that keep forcing my alignment to the left even after is been align. Completely knew front shock suspension and Completely knew outer tied rod and still can't get the alignment straight. At this point is hard to trust any of these automachanic anymore.
I wish SCOTTY live here so I can drive it over for him to check it out.
Hey GUYS stop GUYS turn GUYS back GUYS forward GUYS .
Hey you GUYS . He likes the word
GUTS !!!
Did he say my car will poo?
he said it will pull
My steering wheel is off because my stupid alignment tech doesnt center the wheel and use the lock then do the adjustments. I always have to take it back to them.
Informative, thanks
Mine Is Pulling To The Left, I Have Had The Bushings Replaced. My Co Worker Said My Alignment Is Off Or I Might Have Frame Damage.
It’s probably just a lame you need to just your tire rods
My BMW x5 e53 steering wheel was to the left tried everything nothing worked. So I had a bad ball joint had it fixed and hey presto it lined straight now. So try ball joint if this happened to you
Circum... Circumfar... Yeah whatever!
😂
Nice videos.
Hey guys, this guys vedio helped me since I wanted to buy used car noticed this issue. Tc guuuys
I have Volkswagen polo 2013 steers to one side I I changed the power steering but still stears to one side could it be the power steering pump
Very helpful. Thank you. 🙂👍
Say "guys" one more time mother....
I didn't know "okay" could be "okay" used so many times "okay" in a sentence "okay"
Cool vid bud 👍🏾
You guys are the best!!!
Does this guy breath when he talks? This video has a total of 3 very long sentences without a y breaks between them guys!

Would u be able to drive that to the garage
Guys guys guys guys guys guys guys guys guys guys guys guys
Thank you guys 🤣
Knowledgeable but funny
thanks!
Get your tie rod checked. Done.
Thank u so much.
Guys guys guys steering wheel guys.
Are U under water?
My 08 328i steerring became really stiff after changing the strut, and i had to also re align the wheel and the inner and outer rods were replaced and aligned right before. Any ideas?
I know this sucks to hear but if you change one strut you should always change the other side as well. This is with pretty much any suspension component. Think: if you have a brand new suspension part on one side, and an older and more worn out part on the other side, that is definitely going to mess with your suspension and make it feel sluggish and off.
That problem can also be caused by an incorrect camber angle on the front.
I don’t think I’ll ever be able to say guys ever again. I couldn’t even remember why I clicked on this video and couldn’t concentrate on what he was saying Becuase he wasn’t taking a break while talking so fast and saying guys to set a world record on guys in a single video . I’m not rewatching this I guess I’ll never know what he said other than guys.
Yes... guys.
Please stop saying "guys".
Is he getting paid on how many times he says guys???
After I left kit the new Suzuki jimny goes to left I do everything still the same . I even open the join bolt for steering column not works
Bro my jimny is the same. 2020 jimny brand new and and it’s a little to the left.
THE BRO COOK no use . I take it to the dealer for a week and they do two time wheels alignment and check the steering system no fault . They give me the car same problem,
Gladiator Al Mousa Damnn what you gone do? I like the car but damn it’s annoying driving my car like this.
THE BRO COOK I will try to lose the bolt under steering column and twist it then adjusted from front sway bar . Maybe will works. Because each time I turn that bar adjuster and center the steering then while pull to right side when u drive on highway.
Gladiator Al Mousa good luck
Plot twist: his car is actually rainbow not red
Please slow down as you speak, you're not working at an auctioneers. I wish I had a pound for for everytime you said 'guys', I'd be a very rich man.
OK or GUYS- which one does he say more?
