  1. Thanks for the advice, will try the tyre presure option. Also will change the front tyres around to see if it makes a different as one is Goodyear and the other is Pirali.
  2. Thanks for all the advice. I'm not sure if I want to go back to that place and ask for more details.. Seeing as I only had the car for a month, I am tempted to wait and see what the tyre wear is like. The pull to the left is there but it's very minor. The NSF upper arm replacement isn't cheap is it? Having a quick look on the net range of £400-£550 being mentioned. Would you advice against driving it like this to see if the tyre wear / driving is affected before getting any mechanical work done? Or should I go to a different place to have it inspected properly? (Not sure what kpi/sai is). Any advice for places in Essex / east London? Thanks again for all the advice.
  3. Ohh forgot to add.. The front left has a Piralli run flat (7mm), all the others have Goodyear runflats, (6mm front, 4mm is both back sets) Would this odd tire cause the pull? As I bought the car like this, I'm thinking there was uneven wear on the NSF that's why it's got a Piralli and all the others have slightly older tires.
  4. The car is pulling to the left ever so slightly.. Hence why I took it in. But they said they were only able to adjust the rear toe, would the rear toe that's slightly out make the car pull to the left? The guy in the shop said uneven tire wear, but nothing about pulling left or right. Regarding the font camber, they said with these BMWs some short of part needs changing and the camber itself can't be adjusted? Is this true? They didn't use any weight, but I believe a large size technician was in the driver seat during the test.
  5. Hello, Just had my car tested for laser alignment (Hunter), the garage said the rear Toe is out and can be fixed for £100. The front camber can't be adjusted by them, but its not much so don't worry about it. My mate had a look at the data sheet and said its really not worth getting adjusted now as they are not so far off the mark. So I have left it without paying to have the rear toe adjusted. Openions any one? Should I have the front camber looked at somewhere else? Car is a BMW F10 520D
