Hi Roshansriram,
As Narvo remarked you are the first to report a car pulling to the left - the rest are reported to pull to the right. But then you are also the first to report this problem with a Right Hand Drive car, driving normally on the left handside of the road.....is there a connection I wonder and this is the reason I just wanted to confirm that New Zealand is still a 'drive on the left' country. What engine do you have in your car and there is a theory with the North American cars that the problem is linked to the V6 petrol engined Rondos?
Good point Richard. I forgot the New Zealand drove on the wrong side of the road like most of you in Europe . Its the same for him pulling toward the ditch. He has a diesel though. We can we get diesel in Canada. Must be a government regulation thing.

Actually old chap it's only the Brits, Irish, Maltese & Cypriots who still drive on the left side of the road in Europe - note the common thread -all are island nations.
We've been driving on the left ever since the Roman occupation and I don't expect that it will ever change - it's not that simple to do when you consider road layouts, junctions and signs let alone vehicles (think of bus doors) and education.

Hi,it is a 2L CRDI Diesel Engine.It has been almost a month since i got this vehicle,and the air pressure seemed to be ok by the looks of it.Yesterday however i checked the tyre pressures,The rear left,front left,front right,rear right,showed,37,34,32,32 PSI's respectively,However i changed the pressures to 34 for all 4.Any thoughts.I am going for a long trip this week end,i will keep you all posted,after i return.
Thanks Narvo for your suggestion.There will be one more adult and 3 children other than me for the week end trip.So as Chitti1 has mentioned at high speed on a highway for his car,let me try amd observe how mine responds,taking the load factor into consideration.
Narvo: you said you was meeting with the rep on the 25th - what happened?
The regional rep got the flu and had to cancel, had to re-schedule for February 5th.
Thanks for this Trevor. It seems some are pointing towards the tires for this issue but I have since switched to new winter tires and the issue is still there. I suspect that some of my specs are way off but cannot be adjusted because, as the forum entry above indicates, there is no camber and caster adjustments on the Rondo.
Can you ask the original poster in that forum if he drives a V6? I am not a member of that forum.
