Hey guys,
A few months ago I was driving at night and I hit a pretty big pot hole and it popped my tire.. I chucked on my spare and continued driving it home. The alignment was out and since I had a flat i thought id go down to the local bob jane and get the tyre fixed (had to be replaced because of where the hole was so i replaced both front tyres and put my old right one as a spare) and also the alignment done in one hit.
After getting the car back I noticed a slight pull to the left. I figured that since I had just got it aligned it was just the bank of the road causing it to pull to the left.
After the 5000km or 10000km (cant remember) I took the tyres back to get them rotated and aligned free of charge from bob jane.
When I got the car back I told the person serving me that I've noticed this pull to the left.. He pulled up my alignment figures and I saw that the left tyre camber angle was different to the right one. it was -0.20 degrees where as the right was -0.80 and thats whats causing it to pull to the left.
I asked the worker if theres anything he can do to correct it and the reply I had was "we don't touch the camber angle". I was in a rush that evening so I just accepted it and left.
My question is; is there any way to get the camber angle fixed? Its been giving me the shits.
Cheers for the help
