Pug 206 pulling to one side... then other side

My 206 has started pulling to one side e.g left side quite quickly if I let go of the wheel. Then if I make a tight right turn it will then start pulling to the right and vice versa.

Some times it is not as bad as other times.

What could this be? I wouldn't have thought it was tracking or alignment.

    Have you checked tyre pressures...or are you steering with your knees and not realising it? :D

    Tyre pressures are fine. They were just checked a few days ago and this problem has been happening for the last week or so.

    Best take a look at wheel bearings, track control arms, bushes, ball joints power steering then, or take it to a garage for them to look at.

    So basically it's not self-centring. Something is sticking and probably worn out/disintegrating, could be one of a number of things as Foxy suggests.

    Looks like I'll have to get it booked into a garage again. :(

    Just had a control arm and ball joint replaced last year.
