Tracking

After putting my coilovers on it has put the steering out of alignment so it will need tracking.

i popped into my local quik-fit today (just to get a price) and they said as it has been lowered it wont be the orignal tracking setting and i should have recieved a new setting with my new springs.

i have serached through the instructions and can not find anything (also alot of it is in german because they are weitec which doesnt help), but anyway i am 99% sure its not there.

Is he telling me the right thing, or should i just go somewhere and get it tracked anyay?

?

don't go kwik fit, it seems like they know jack s**t, go somewhere else mate, i got mine done for Â£35 on a laser alignment machine with a printout of before and after of the camber/caster/etc.

at my dads friends garage they have a laser thing at Â£30 i think which isnt bad. will i need my camber and caster doing aswell as tracking? or is that the same thing?? becuase i remember last time i went they said they couldnt do that due to equipment???

hmm, most garages have problems if your wheels are in the arches so...take your pick
