I just had some work done on the car very recently : full poly bush kit and front Eibach antirollbar plus tracking

When driving home the car was noticeably pulling left . When contacted garage regarding this I was rebooked for another wheel tracking.

That was done and its a bit better now BUT the car is still pulling to the left.

Can anyone advise? had anyone had same experience?What can cause this?

any advise appreciated

Did it pull left before any work was carried-out?

My 2005 Fabia VRS has pulled left since new, tyre wear even, got used to it now after 6+ years.LOL

No.it was fine before.

thanks though

Maybe it was never set right before. Mine pulls to the left and every other vrs driver has pretty much reported the same at some stage. I

Well,to be honest I spoke to Unit 18 and they said the platform might not be put back right in the centre....

Just wanted to know if anybody experienced same....

I think Ive seen few post here about alignment where customers had bushes done and had the same problem. It turns out cradle was mounted incorectly and needed someone with proper expirience to find it. Tracking job is not enough. Tracking is just for toe. You need camber and CASTER checked out. I bet cradle is mounted wrong.

Cheers for all the help and info guys!!!!

Mine pulls left slightly as well but tyre wear seems to be equal :S

What the above garage in the "know" did is move the subframe....linky to my post re this

****************************************************************************

Front pivot bolt for lower wishbone = 70Nm (52lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn.

Lower arm rear mounting bracket plate (console) has 1 large bolt and 2 small ones.

Large = 70Nm (52lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn.

Small = 20Nm (15lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn. Always renew these bolts.

Front (console) subframe to underbody bolt (the one that you get to through hole on wishbone) = 50Nm (37lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn (Yes I know that this is a lower torque than rear bolt, but logically the rear one takes more force as the suspension tries to go up and back into bodywork, which is why it also has a reinforcing place and a further 2 bolts!!

Steering rack to subframe/console/underbody (four bolts) = 50Nm (37lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn.

Gearbox link to subframe bolt = 40Nm (30lbf ft)+ 1/4 turn.

***If you have had to move/replace console, ARB, etc. I have found this to help setting it up even!! Slacken all the above bolts up to line ******(especially front pivot). Then push the aluminium consoles (you might also have to push the subframe) to rear of car and outwards max diff is about 5mm. Then fully tighten the rear console bracket bolts (6 total) and front console bolts (2). Then tighten (evenly) the front pivot bolts to 1/2 torque (this positions the sub frame), then fully tighten the four steering rack bolts. Now you can go back and fully tighten the front pivot bolts, and the gearbox link to subframe bolt!!!
