Default 4 wheel laser alignment?

Is this something you guys do down there?

Will you be able to laser align my car at some point during the morning of the RR day - maybe afterwards? At the moment it is not bad, but when I hold the wheel straight, it turns, so I could do with it being straightened, with the steering wheel in the correct position (something I feel my last place I had it done neglected to do)

I think the boys will be busy with the rollers etc and they tend to fill the workshop bays with cars to create more space outback.

I know a place in Fareham which will be open and I am sure there are places in Portsmouth.

I might ask them when I get there then for recommendations. Not in desperate need of being done - just wondered if it was one of those "kill two birds with one stone" occasions

Hi,

Sorry as Stu said all the workshop bays are closed on RR days. We only have laser tracking not a 4 wheel alignment facility on site. We recommend Denmead Tyres in Denmead but there may be some where closer on the day.

Regards
Kate

Laser tracking is basically what it is as the rear ends are not adjustable, so it's a case of hooking up the lasers, getting the steering wheel straight, and adjusting the tracking rods. I'll come have a word in the morning.
