| four wheel alignment recomendations edinburgh lothians fife |
|
need your help guys , ned to get the four wheel alignment sorted on the d3 , and as we all know its a nightmare to get someone or somewhere to do it correctly ,put in tight tolerance mode ,hunter machine etc . any one been somewere that fits the bill and how much it cost you? 
also my sterring wheel is off centre in that to go straight forward its at five past twelve instead of twelve o clock , would this be related to the alignment or not, its really annoying ! 
would appreciate any input ,cheers

My D3 was done a couple of times by CLCM in Edinburgh.....as recommended by Andy White who sends all his customers there after suspension work.....very good and very reasonable 
Ps get Andy to put in into tight tolerance mode before taking it along....it's only 10 minutes from him "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Top Tyres at Auchtermuchty do 4 wheel alignment. They do a fair bit of Disco suspension as well.

PS - I'm sure I will have passed you some mornings... or you will have spotted SWMBO in her Freelander... With PAWWS on it...

Thanks guys ,I take it both these places are doing the tight tolerance malarkey? Seems to be a nightmare to get somewhere that knows how to do this job correctly on the disco , just need to be sure its getting done correctly !
when I'm driving to work I'm in a midnight sky 12 plate transit van ,not my nice d3 unfortunately ,but I'm almost certain I've seen a Freelander with paws on it! also pass qiute a few d3s and d4s

Cheers Mike, why does everyone harp on about it on here, saying it's not been done correctly if not put in ttm? I'm hoping the garage did the alignment correctly, he was adamant he could do it. Just don't understand how the steering wheel can move out of centre so much, would think something is wrong?
