Wheel alignment

Post by rhapsodicboom » Sat Feb 10, 2018 5:21 pm

Hey guys,
So I took my car to kwik fit to get wheel alignment as they have the hunter system. After spending around an hour and a bit he gave me the results. The front camber wasn't adjusted and when asked he said that they don't do that only front toe and I need to get it taken to manufacture to adjust front camber? Sounds a bit weird as he did rear camber and toe and he replied that no alignment centre does front camber as it interferes with the engine bay. Is this right I think not.

Take it somewhere that knows what their doing. Hunter stuff brilliant but kwikfit. All the gear no idea springs to mind.

Typical Kwik fit Muppets. They really do need to stick to fitting tyres, that really is about all they're good for.

What is the front chamber adjustment method on a Z4 - moving the top mount position relative to the turret?
