What is the solution for C4L steering wheel wobble?
2 Answers
Check the static balance of the wheels and whether the tires are excessively deformed. If deformed, the wheels should be replaced. If the tie rod ball joint is loose or the rubber sleeve at the joint has fallen off, or if the tires have become irregular due to wear, take the vehicle to a professional repair shop for inspection and replace the damaged components. If the tires are deformed due to daily use, such as scraping, collision, or aging, simply replace the tires. After replacing the brake discs and brake pads, the symptoms will be eliminated.
I've experienced steering wheel wobbling before. After driving my Citroën C4L for several years, the steering wheel started shaking, especially on highways where the vibration made my hands go numb. I initially thought it was a tire issue. So I took it to the garage for inspection, and the mechanic found that loose wheel hub bearings caused imbalance. I spent some money replacing the bearings and doing a four-wheel alignment. Normally, not paying attention to rough roads can accelerate wear. After the repair, the car immediately felt stable and drove much smoother. I suggest you don't delay—check your tire pressure and wheel hubs promptly to avoid further damage to the suspension system. Driving safety comes first, especially on long trips where unstable steering can cause lane deviation and increase accident risks. Pay attention to these components during regular maintenance to prevent issues.
