Liam89 Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 I’ve just had the tracking done on a gyro and everything is set perfect but when accelerating it pulls to one side. MOT has just been done and the mechanic has checked but can’t find the reason. Has anyone else had anything like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sentech Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 What about the geometry of the Mcpherson struts ? I had a similar issue some years ago, and the struts were all to cock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 bignev Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 (edited) How are the tyres? Wear and pressure? Our first GV drove with the steering wheel slighty off centre, and had a minor pull, but geometry was fine.It was worn tyres. They did not look that bad and were nowhere near the wesar limit.When we got it the wheels were scabby so wheels were on the shopping list, so when it got new wheels and tyres it was sweet thereafter!!

0 maxcaddy Posted September 3, 2021 Report Share Posted September 3, 2021 If there is any wear in the suspension setup at all the tracking will only be based on where the car has settled. for instance a worn track rod will give different reading depending on how it's at rest. Obviously a respectable/honest outfit would say to you that there was wear, and that they couldn't guarantee the setting, but in my experience such places are nowadays few and far between, and if the name starts with 'Kwik anything' be very beware.......... bignev 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
