  • Mondeo Subframe Alignment 20 Dec 2002 (Forum)
    After having a 4 wheel alignment done over christmas my Mondeo is still chewing rear tyres (the fronts are fine.) I bought some subframe alignment pins on the internet and found the front subframe to be misaligned according to the alignment holes in subframe and shell. Today I have booked the car

  • Car alignment fixed however... 25 Oct 2017 (Forum)
    Got my Alignment fixed and it drives perfectly straight, the issue was the steer ahead was off and the car was driving to the right when the wheel was centered, but since the alignment fix it now feels like the front left side sits slightly lower. Now i have done a measurement from
  • VW Golf MK8 - ADAS recalibration required after wheel alignment? 10 May 2024 (Forum)
    Hello All, I booked my year 2020 VW Golf MK8 in for two new front tyres and a full wheel alignment at my local tyre centre and they said that they were unable to carry out the wheel alignment as my car was an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) equipped vehicle and they did
  • headlight alignment mot fail? 6 Jun 2005 (Forum)
    I am curious to know if incorrect headlight alignment is an automatic MOT fail in the UK? Here in southern Ireland the rules changed in the last couple of years deeming it an automatic fail, complete with all the hassle involved. i was also wondering what the average price in the UK

  • Wheel alignment 12 Jan 2006 (Forum)
    Jazz has got her 2nd service coming up at the end of January. Do they check wheel alignment during a normal service or do you have to ask them to do it? Would it be cheaper to have it done at an independent garage? (I assume that wheel alignment doesn't come under things covered by the warranty
  • Rear wheel alignment 2001 - Honda Accord 23 Mar 2005 (Forum)
    I've recently had my car laser checked which has revealed that my n/s/r wheel is out of alignment- the car has a slight pull to the left which is most noticable under braking. Is the rear alignment adjustable and if so is this a Honda dealer job or could I expect to find an independent to carry

  • Wheel Alignment Centres 7 Oct 2001 (Forum)
    Does anyone know of a really good wheel alignment centre in the Middlesbrough area? It seems from my experience and from reading comments on this site that most places do a bad job.
  • Fiat Bravo - Wheel Alignment wth worn balljoint? 19 Oct 2010 (Forum)
    I am wnting to get my front wheels aligned as my drivers side tyre is worn on the inner side and the tyres are only 6 month old. Only problem is my passenger side ball joint has some play in it. Can I still get the wheel alignment done if this is the case or will the measurements be out due
  • Tracking/Alignment 20 Jul 2002 (Forum)
    From searching the backroom I find that "wheel alignment" and "tracking" are the same thing? From what I have read and enquired you can pay between £20 and £65 for an "4 wheel alignment check with basic adjustment" Do you tend to get what you pay for? The diferrence in costs seems to be very high
  • Wheel alignment: Milton Keynes 3 Jun 2004 (Forum)
    Can anyone recommend a good place to get wheels aligned in or near MK? I am here on business for a few days and want to get the camber/toe-in etc checked, not just basic tracking. Thanks
  • 2017 1.6 diesel - brand new seat toledo alignment issue ? 12 Oct 2017 (Forum)
    I have noticed that my brand new toledo may have an alignment issue. It's not so much a pull but when the steering wheel is held bang on in the centre on a flat road or one without to big a camber, it will gradually start to drive to the right(drivers side). It doesnt happen
  • Primera Xenon Headlamps 1 Aug 2006 (Forum)

  • VW Polo - Wheel Alignment 2 Aug 2022 (Forum)
    I've had the car serviced and need new front tyres.  The depth on them is 2.65 for inner (both) and 2.56 outer passenger side, 2.77 driver side.  From that would you say that the wheel alignment needs adjusting?  Thanks.

  • 2013 BMW 5 Series Touring SE 520d - Wheel alignment and fuel consumption 5 May 2016 (Forum)
    I've just had a full new set of tyres fitted to my 2013 BMW 5 Series Touring at 29,000 miles, the garage also did a wheel alignment check, and some adjustment was made to the toe on all 4 wheels.  My fuel consumption has now increased from around 53-54 mpg to consistently under 50. The new
  • Wheel Alignment - Ford Mondeo 29 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    Is a 12mm difference in longitudinal alignment across the front wheels on a Ford Mondeo within manufacturing specification? I have a friend who has managed to come to this deviation by unknown means, but, to me it seems a tad too much. Is it worth him having a wheel alignment, or maybe getting
