    Default Anyone have advice on steering wandering?

    The steering on on my 91 525i seems to be pulling left and right. it becomes more pronounced at speeds above 55. It also seems to be caused by bumps and irregularities onthe road as it will track straight for a while then vere over small bumps. everything i checked seemed tight and didnt show any visible signs of wear. The steering box had been replaced with a used one a while back bc of too much steering play.... any advice would be helpful.

    Default Have you checked your tires? They may be out of circle.

    Tires could be worn funky or loose steering componants which you said you checked. The other thing is alignment may be off a few degrees, replace whatever could be iffy and get an alignment.
