1 - Check tyres. They might be old and odd shapped.
2- Then alignment.

That is all.

bigdamo on here was told his new lude was 4ws and it was a bb4 2ws only ;) he wasn't happy :(

people that kit my have converted her to 2ws :?:
That is a very good point.

Open the bonnet on the slam panel on the right as you look at it will be a plate with the chassis number on it

BB1 = 4ws
BB4 = no 4ws
BA8 = No 4ws or Vtec engine

Then we can go from there

Excellent, will check all that out tomorrow. thanks for all the advice.

As for the manual ammo, its wicked and will come in very handly, but unfortunately doesnt have what i was looking for.
I was hoping for just a diagram of the dash explaining what all the warning lights are.

Ok, so i found the 4ws light and the chassis code is bb1, but the 4ws light doesnt come on at all.

And just had a lot of trouble starting the car. ugh, more problems to add to the list no doubt!

that is your pull then. they have taken the bulb out which means your rear wheels are just moving around on two big springs going wherever they like :shock:
