I had the same problem with my 406 if the stabiliser links are ok then it will be a 4 wheel alignment you need. The rear tyres will not last long either if the alignment is wrong. I had a 4 wheel alignment done recently and it made a hell of a difference the rear tyres are wearing evenly and not scrubbing on the inside edge anymore.
