STI 8 PPP pulling to the left
Just bought the above, t is fitted with 18" Prodrive alloys, Subaru have now had it for 3 days --- They have swapped the wheels round---Fitted a complete different set-----changed 1 front and 1 rear strut----4 wheel alligned twice.........
STILL PULLING!!! AaaaaHhhhh!!
They are sending to someone else local to dealership who set up rally/racing cars to see if they can figure it out.
I've searched the threads,,and can't see anthing else it could be apart from other obvious reasons ie. tyre pressures,,binding brake caliper, road camber.
After it goes to this other place tomorrow they are going to fob me off,,at least they have already pre-warned me of this!!
Has anyone else finally figured this out, it is worse whilst accelarating but also does it whilst coasting so I have also crossed the Diff of the list of suspects..
Is 4 wheel geometry a whole different kit & caboodle to 4 wheel tracking?
I suspect it is as doesn't the prior involve wheel camber angles and stuff?
Any suggestions I need ammo ASAP...to fire off
cheers in advance,,,,Dave

Dave,
It was toe, camber, castor, setback,centre line etc etc.....for all 4wheels.Worth pointing out that car was terrible straight from the factory!Pulled left when on throttle and right when lifting.

Cheers Steve, I'll give them a ring.
I'll just post a thread though to see if there is anyone a bit closer to me, I'll put your list of things involved in the setup though.
Hope I can help you out in the future, Ta very much!!
