I'm sure I remember him saying at the open day that caster was not adjustable, although in hindsight I thought the front subframe was.. :-/
Yes so do i, and officially it is not( oh listen to me im doing it again, taking other peoples second or third hand info and making it sound factual) i should say i was told by another set up firm, and i did witness him do it and note the readings, "that the subframe holes have such play in them that the caster can be miles out as vx just windy gun the bolts up any old how at the factory". He then asked me if the stearing was slow to return to centre when pulling out of a junction, it was, he adjusted the subframe and it was much better. He also said, even vx dont know about that one! The car was transformed, but considering the right front was rubbing on the shock, it would be.
I wonder why, in wims own words iirc, the caster is not quite correct, given that it is not(officially) adjustable? Anyone? Could it be that the subframe is not quite in the correct place?
Now before we all go casting doubt on all other set up firms i have used this company several times and various cars with v good results but they have become too big and impersonal.
Hmmm, not sure about it tbh, the set up i mean. Having been to work and back, its a whole lot better dont get of wrong, but it drifts to the right, it difficult because the camber pulls the stearing wheel, as it does. On some occassions ridding up a slight right to left camber.
But i am sure somethings not right at the back, unrulated to the set up, it was there before that and the new rear shocks and set of tires. I had hoped any of those changes would have got rid of the symptoms but its still there, wim spotted a broken spring at the back drivers side but only an inch at the base. They dont think
It will affect anything and i dont think that would cause the loose back end feel off the throttle, like its got a puncture/2 low pressure rear tires. Or a cut and shut with a dodgy welding job. Anyone know about rear suspension bushes? Ill give Tony a ring in the morning and i suppose i should change the rear springs. Can i just fit mv6 springs(all round) to stock dampers ? No, didnt think so. Cheers all.
