Right, I have started this thread for the obvious reasons of (a) - solving my own problem and (b)- yours if your have the misfortune of having to deal with this.
Problem:
-I am looking for ideas to look into what could cause a 300tdi 1997 5 door disco wander off to the right.. (only slightly.. but it wonders..)
signs and symptoms:
-the inner drivers side tyre has signs of wear on it,
-fuel consumption has gone up as a result.
The majority of us will think immediately about tyre pressures
but for novices (including myself..)
Heres what I think I need to be looking at:
I will be posting photos of this to help others who could be scratching their heads on this. (here we go again.)
My intention is to get this sorted and help others on this...
cheers for your time.. lets have your thoughts then....

Heres what I think I need to be looking at:
- The bushes and mounts surrounding suspension,
- The springs and shock absorbers, steering dampers.
- Tracking (toe in and toe out...)
