    Thanks dudes,

    I had the car up yesterday and checked for anything loose or with play and couldnt find anything. Ill next rotate the tyres. Could it be the strut top bearings and how do i check them??

    Cheers

    Also how you do the wheel nuts up is important, it has to be opposites to make it even.

    also worth a look is how much play is in your steering rack.
    my MK1 didnt wobble, but it had about a quater of a turn before it had any input, lol.
    the rack wears a bit and the pinion becomes loose fit on the rack.
    easy to ajust tho
    Cheers, Benny
