Hmm, Dan you could always try Prosport, mines going there a week on saturday for full 4 wheel alignment, geometry etc (they come highly recommended)
With bob269's comments, my old sport used to do this every once in a while, and it turned out to be dirt blocking the steering on the left hand side (as in dirt in the power steering fluid) every once in a while the dirt/debris would move over to the piston/valve etc (not sure whats in the steering rack) and cause a lack of fluid and hence the steering would pull to the left, sometimes it felt like driving on a flat tyre (if you know what I mean)

I know the road has a natural camber but its more noticable in my car than others ive driven.. All the tyre pressures are spot on to.?? The pulling was there before the new tyres.
Anyone an ideas as to what it could be..???
Please help

Thought you'd sold it Dan, haven't seen you post for a while, then again I'm never on here anymore lol
Are you sure it wasn't tracking right before and they've straightened it and now you're feeling it pulling left with the road camber (which should pull you left)
