Alignment / Tracking issue...i think

Featured Replies

Soo having a bit of ongoing issue and now I'm out of my depth, any advice would be much appreciated! 

In short: 

- Car kept pulling slightly to the left 
- Got alignment sorted and its all good
- Then I noticed it went out again so went to get alignment checked again and it was out again, so got it redone
- But the alignment still wasn't the way it used to be
- Got one of the tyres changed which was low now all tyres are the same with 7mm tread 
- tracking was checked again and the machine shows it as perfect

The catch is, it is still pulling to left slightly. Just checked tyre pressure and that's all good...

Any one out there with any ideas as to why this could be happening?

Cars done about 65,000 miles, 2014 reg. 

Let me know what if any further info required!

Hello Sam,

I cannot see that the alignment would change, once it’s set.

Possible explanation? 

Was all the suspension and steering thoroughly checked for wear before the alignment was set in the first place? If not, then that could explain why it was found to be out again on the second occasion. 

If it were mine, I would be getting a complete inspection of suspension and steering before doing anything else. There just isn’t any point in simply adjusting things if there is wear. 

Kind regards,

Gareth.

Thanks Gareth - I called the garage and am told it was but they are doing a more thorough check later this week so let's see if anything else pops up. Thanks for the advice!
