mk4 gti pulling heavy to the left

[conor1]

i just bought my first golf gti 1.8t yesterday.when i test drove the car it was in a big car park everything seemed fine but after i paid the person and was out on the open road i noticed under acceleration the car pulls fairly heavy to the left any ideas. ive browsed through and searched the forum but couldnt find anything although i did find a lot of useful info any help greatly appreciated cheers conor.

it has been sugested already that it may be the tracking but i was under the impression that if it was it would be pulling all the time.

normaly its lower arm rear bushes or a balljoint. best thing to do is check.. tyre pressures all suspension bushes. the front bolt on the wisbones came loose and i had the exact same issue so check that?. doubt its tracking
