Car pulls to left on highway!!
Car pulls to left on highway!!
I know you are thinking "alignment", but car has very slight pull to left on highway but when I step on gas in 5th or 6th, car pulls somewhat severely to left. It is not torque steer, as holding wheel straight does no good, I have to actually steer to the right to go straight. When I let off of gas, car dives to the right! So basically, throttle on nose goes left, throttle off nose goes right(because I have to steer to right to go straight with throttle on)
In 1st through 4th, car does not pull to either side except when I really put foot in it, then it pulls to the RIGHT! And by "throttle on", I do not mean stomping on it, I mean just normal speed adjustments.
Thanks

I had my aligment done on my car and it drove perfect. Now need to go back and have it done agian because morons at Nissan while doing my clutch TSB messed up the aligment. Now it pulls to the right.
My tires are wearing fine. A constant pull is one thing, but my car is difficult to drive in a straight line because it "dives" left when I step on gas, and "dives" back to the right when I stop accelerating(remember, this is in 5th or 6th gear--not much torque)

Anyway, don't know why that would affect you only in 5th and 6th, but try swapping the tires and see if the problem reverses. If so...that's it.
