I checked the tyre pressures on arriving home and they are correct.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, Had my car in for a 6 year minor service / drive belt change today. All went well with no advisories. However on driving home I thought my steering felt heavier/more weighted than before. I checked the tyre pressures on arriving home and they are correct. The car had also only done 2 miles from the mileage I noted before it went in for the service to picking it up after. Any ideas on what could cause this? I will have to get back out in the car again to be 100% sure but it definitely felt like it. Cheers, Kevin.

POST 2Original post

You've had the pressures too high for ages and they've lowered them for you?

POST 5Original post

they have kerbed it and your geometry is now buggered - good luck.

More likely to feel different with the suspension having been sat unloaded for a while whilst on the ramp. Ashley

athomp04 said: More likely to feel different with the suspension having been sat unloaded for a while whilst on the ramp. Ashley You really think that that would make a difference? I'd imagine that everything would have 'settled' after about 3 metres of forward motion.
