Exclamation Need Help! Wheel Tracking

Hello

I am just about to get a 2.0i sport wagon, i found out that it is drifting to the left due to the tracking being out on the car. Went to garge to get the tracking sort and found out that it can not be adjusted any more!

Is this an easy part to source out and fix?, and save myself £300.00 pounds by not taking it to the garge

Any Information would be most grateful.

if its out of range then its either got something bent, or the camber is incorrectly adjusted also

If its that far out you could have a more serious problem.
Bent steering arm, bottom arm, or even a bent chassis leg.
I would get somebody that knows about Scoobys to take a look and with a bit of luck its just a steering arm. Thought a decent garage would have found the problem for you.

When you look at the wheels from the side is the gap between the bottom of the wheel arch and the wheel the same both sides?
