    Subframe adjustment - Help needed!!

    Would you recommend bringing it to a different alignment specialist before I remove the subframe?

    Subframe adjustment - Help needed!!

    I had the lowering springs fitted well before the tracking was done and after it was done, it felt great. I might just bring it to another alignment specialist before I remove the subframe, no harm in getting a 2nd opinion and I will show them this message. Hopefully they'll understand it better...

    200: Brake Caliper colour opinions?

    Look forward to seeing them mate. I was thinking Audi silver with an Albi blue decal.. keeping it classy ;) Has anyone used BCS Clalipers? They have a great website with a brilliant choice of colours... http://www.brakecaliperspecialists.uk/high-end-caliper-painting/

    Tonight I took the wheels off, removed the spacers, put the wheels back on and took it for a drive in the hope it would solve the issue but unfortunately it still pulls to the left:worried: Only 1 thing left to do... black badge the sh*t out of it and bang it up on Ebay :smile: That's obviously...

    Sorry, only getting back to posting a pic of the tracking results now (had a very busy weekend). This was after it was tracked with the 7mm spacers. In the mean time I had the H&R 20mm spacers fitted and new tyres. The tracking was checked after that by the same company who use the Hunter...

    I changed the tyres because I was told the issue was the tyres. 2 brand new Hankook V12's.. they were not the issue, car still pulls (but I'm really enjoying the grip from them, great tyre) :)

    I know but I'll get to the bottom of it. Maybe the subframe is the issue with all our left pulling cars and maybe we need a definitive way to solve it.. I'll let you know how I get on. Cheers mate

    Subframe adjustment - Help needed!!

    As much as I appreciate the response, I have to disagree Antti. I drove the car for 4 or 5 months and it drove perfectly, no pull left or right, on any road surface. Then I started to modify the suspension and have now developed a tracking issue. I also don't believe that all Clio's pull to the...

    Subframe adjustment - Help needed!!

    The only thing is mate, the car was perfect after it got the 2 inner tie rods and was tracked. I drove it for 4 months like that and It was even better after I lowered it, it was dead straight on the road so there's a definitely an issue somewhere. It's either the subframe has to be re-adjusted...

    Subframe adjustment - Help needed!!

    That's a good shout Mike. It was in the back of my mind about the spacers but I thought, how could they cause the car to pull left? Only one way to find out I suppose, I'll take them off at the weekend see how it effects things. Hopefully you're right ;) I didn't know a failing lower mount...

    Hey Folks. I'm in trouble and need your help. I bought an Albi Blue 197 about 6 months ago, have to say, absolutely love it. The clutch was slipping when i got the car so it was the first job i done. It was also pulling to the left so when the mechanic was doing the clutch, I asked him to...
