What do you need? I have a manual. You can buy them on ebay if you need one or I can help you.

Hello there. You should really buy a 'Haynes Manual' if you are doing this kind of work on your car. The item you are renewing is either a 'Track rod end ' or a 'Tie Rod'.. I presume you are going to change a Track Rod End. Here we go ! .1) First Jack up the car and support on axle stands properly. You should ALWAYS do this. Jacks CANNOT be trusted EVER. 2) Undo the small nut on the top of the Ball joint. You then need to use a Ball Joint Splitter or a 'homemade metal wedge' and big Hammer, and insert it between the two parts (Track rod end and suspension extension) and separate the two parts. The 'bolt' that the nut was on is a tapered fit so it will be hard to separate the two. . 3) When separated, undo the locknut on the other end of the Track Rod end and 'unscrew' the whole Track rod end from the Tiie Rod.. IMPORTANT Make a note of how many turns it took to 'unscrew' the Track Rod end from the Tie Rod. 4) Screw the new Track Rod end into the Tie Rod as exactly the same number of turns to take out the old one if you can. (DONT forget to put the old locknut on to the new Track Rod End first !!!!) 5) Locate the thread of the new ball joint through the Suspension extension as was initially found and then fully tighten a NEW Nyloc nut on the top of the threaded part. (If you use the old nut and the steering comes apart at 70 MPH don't blame me) 6) Tighten the lock nut on the other end on the Track Rod End. 7) Take to a Tyre shop and have the TRACKING re-aligned. If you dont do this your tyres will only last for two weeks or so. !!!!!! Job Done

you have'nt mention age of vehicle but i assume it's fitted with OBD so i'd have the codes read ,this will pinpoint the sensor/switch that could be causing the problem keep me posted if you wish
