Hi people
finaly have taken the first step on moding my 6n2, got me some coilies but im haveing an issue...

has anyone has this issue?

my drivers side front wheel has a slant on top, leaning in.
ive changed the shocks twice, first a used one then a new on, also changed the wishbone but no difference.
tried the camber and thats pulled to the max.
also when i lock the steering to the left, it has a pull and wont come back but will when steered to the right? {when driveing}
the only thing left is hub which is my next step on tuesday but just needed to know if i should consider somthing else...?
heres a picture hope it can be noticed...



thanks

Is your wheel put on straight ? are you useing the same size wheel nuts ? Is there any dirt blocking the wheel from going on square ? Is there any other reason your wheel aint going on square ?

Sorry prob not a lot of help but hope you get it sorted. Nice Car tho

take the wheel off and check the hub mate,

Cheers Mate, no need to rush take your time.

just note this may/probably will put your tracking off, its slightly strange that the lean is at the top and not the bottom is the car a CAT D ? or been in any knocks that you know of ? any damage around surrounding pannels ?,

cheers, im gonna take a bit of a back seat with the car as of next month wanna start redeccorating my house,

Jord you always take a back seat mate

it has had a knock but it was minor really, just replaced the wing.
i have had it tracked twice, the first time they told me it was the wishbone, dont think even they know what the issue is. the sub frame looks straight.
the way to check chassis damage is to look under the hood and check to see if any of the bolts have moved and in my case their all straight.
hopeing it is the hub

its really doing my nut in now.
had some more bad luck today, my brothers hub is completely seized and no way i can take it off so there for i have no choice but to get a new one.
one thing i did come out with, a serious tan lol

heres a pic of the work i carried out today...

to make things worse the coilies i bought are the wrong ones!! it was advertised for a mk5 which is 6n but just now as i opend them i realised they are for mark6, 9n?

the lady who sold them on behalf of her son has messd me up even more and daught she will refund them so if anyones looking for some coilies, brand new.

If you got them from ebay/phone/or any other internet site mate you should be able to get a refund under the Distance Selling Regulations it says "you must give consumers clear information including details of the goods or services offered" which they did not as they gave you the wrong information about the item and also it says "the consumer has a cooling-off period of seven working days" Hope this helps you.
