Car pulls to right under acceleration, then left when you let off!

[littlebash]

So then

Under moderate to hard acceleration in a 2002 K11, the car pulls to the right. When you let off the gas, it then pulls to the left. Started a month or so ago and has now got worse.

I've found i can now steer the car round bends simply by how quickly i accelerate or let off the throttle pedal!

Anyway, its annoying - i can't find any obvious play in the suspension on either side (i would have expected the wishbones and bushes to be shot)...any other suggestions - i was thinking maybe a shot engine mount

Thoughts, or anyone else come across this

Thanks

do a nice little wheelspin from standstill or just leave the handbreak up when you do it
then park up and have a look if bothsides gave a good spinup track--should rule out driveshafts then

i just had that issue.

it is the wishbone rubber nacked.

check your passanger side wishbone.

on the middie of it it had a rubber and check that to see if it is nacked.

change mine last thursday and it is all fine.

the guy who chnage it for me said that it is wear n tear due to we had the worse winter.

Could also indicate worn out engine or gearbox mount.
Never had to change a wishbone on a Micra before.Ford Fiestas like one or 2 every year at the MOT
