I got some buddy club coilovers installed and haven't got an alignment yet because it so happens that the coilovers are defective so I don't want to waste money until I get them replaced. The car has always pulled to the right a little bit but today on the freeway I heard a loud clunk and then when I accelerated, the car pulls hard to the left and the harder I step on the accelerator the harder it pulls. But as soon as I let off the gas or slow down the car pulls hard to the right. Any ideas of what this could be?? Thanks in advance

 

Check your tire pressures.

 

First check the items mentioned by the two gentlemen above.

In addition, you mention that your coilovers were "defective". I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I certainly wouldn't want defective components on my car, especially those involved with suspension and steering.

 

I haven't checked the tire pressure yet, but I did check to make sure the front tires were in the front and the backs were in the back, so that is fine. I will be checking the tire pressure a little bit later. And what I meant by defective is Buddy Club basically sent me a bad batch of coilovers, I guess the noise was coming from the shock assembly as it was not compressing under stress. Maybe too much compression damping was setup on the shocks, but BC agreed they were faulty so.. Thanks for all the input

 

If the shock on one side of the car is compressing and the shock on the other side is not that could lead to pulling, especially when braking.
