Bringing this thread back, as the problem is still there. I'm going to take my car to a mechanic next week (San Antonio if anyone has a recommendation) and I really want to have a good idea as to what it could be. I got an alignment (stock specs, with a little bit more aggressive camber in the rear) and the pulling is still evident under acceleration.

Could this be a differential problem?

Or is some sort of worn suspension piece? Bushings have been mentioned earlier... is this likely the problem?

Thanks for your time and wisdom.

I have had this issue twice caused by differential mounts, I have also heard of a wheel bearing causing this. If you figure it out post what fixed it in here!

Possible causes thus far:

1. Wheel bearing
2. Tie rods
3. Bushings
4. Ball joint

If either of the above are the problem, which side would it probably be on?

5. Differential mount

I have a 2005 s2k.

mine use to be fine.

let my old man drive it one night, got back in it the next day and was doing it bad.

i asked if he hit something and he said no... so mine started happening for no reason also.

its not as bad as it was as my rear right tire has a slow leak... i pumped her to 41psi and all the rest to 41psi just to see what it did when on freeway and it still does it slightly.

if anyone finds out the cause im all ears... dont think its a crash thing mate. it should be able to be fixed. somethings worn/broken/whateva... but many people have had this problem...

and if anyone says its torque steer tell em to suck on it. we drive RWD cars... should always pull straight when in straight line.

its pissing me off too!
