Buying a used Fabia Monte Carlo

[baldeagle7470]

Guy at Euromaster said the tracking was just a fraction out and recommended no action until new types were neede the car has just covered 28,000 Kms but has been driven by an old lady haha so lots of smiles left in the tires yet.

Did he set up the equipment,

do the check,

say it was a little out, just a fraction,

but then not just do the little adjustment.?

 

That is Tyre fitters for you,  they like to sell tyres!

Usually the check is free, but you have to pay to have it sorted.

Unless you talk em round like i did haha.

Exactly.

So they set up, check free, and you do not get an adjustment, and when you do get a new tyre, it still needs adjusted, 

because an ickle bit out was enough for premature wear last time, and same again this time.

(unless for once that pot hole or kerbing corrects it this time!)

You are dead right,however I was working on something else so couldn't take it for her.

she said he checked properly,left people buying a full set of tyres for the time it took.

My loose trailer tyre he fitted,not bought from there for €3.20 so don't think a rip off merchant,

could be wrong,will see in the fullness of time.
