Wheel alignment issues.

I have had a good search on here to establish the best way of getting the tracking sorted on my rrs, so I went on to align my car.com and searched for the nearest hunter equipped garage which was all good.
Booked it in for today went through it all with the receptionist stating what car I had and what needed doing.
So to my surprise my wife calls me from the garage stating they are not equipped to do this car as it has dynamic/adaptive cruise control and that it needs to go to Land Rover for this.
This baffles me as they can't have the software to put it in TTM!
Am I right or do I need Land Rover, if they had said I could've gone there and done it with my iid?

Rant over anyway does anyone know anyone who can do my alignment in the Brighton/ Sussex area?
Thanks Sam

Not sure what the cruise control has to do with getting the wheel alignment checked.

And to stop the suspension moving they can just leave the drivers door open.

Highly recommended people in Horley which is not that far from you. I seem to remember that Geoff posted their details not so long ago.

They're talking rubbish ref. the ACC. My local tyre place has Hunter and I use my own IIDTool to put the vehicle in TTM.

That's on a par with opening the tailgate and putting the hazards on old wives tale. Rolling Eyes

Quite strange.

Bunch of numpties!! Exactly what I thought.
I'll have a search for the one in horley..
Apparently the two rear wheels are buckled.
So I need to get them looked at first.

One of our site sponsors is about 45 minutes from you - an expert with your vehicle. AJS tyres look him up......

Thanks canburne, I didn't realise they were there, do you know if they have the hunter set up as it doesn't state on their website.
45mins is a little optimistic, maybe on a clear run.

My dealer outsources alignment to a local place so I'd call BS on what they've said.
