Went to get my tracking done thinking it be £30 job done, turns out only one place in my area can do it, Due to me lowering my car and having to be on a machine ETC. so gave the guys a ring and its £31 per camber. am i to assume i only have two cambers? or does the mk3 have more? need to know how much im looking at.

>and its £31 per camber
bizare way of pricing it. As far as I know the mk3 is 0'degree camber on all four wheels by design.

very odd way of pricing it.. I'd look elsewhere and look into a garage a bit of a distance away. garage near me does tracking from £15, depending on your car, can not imagine it would be £31 per camber!

Not that odd....

go to www.blackcircles.com and look for their approved garages, thats where id go near me for tracking, and where ive found it cheapest
-
Mine cost me £54 full camber alignment, that was blackcircle approved
-
I paid £60 recently. £20 for the alignment and £40 for front camber. I shopped around as well and cheapest could find. Camber is not usually included in 4 wheel alignment prices.

Thanks guys, i went to a few garages who wont even touch it as iv lowered my car. (told me they don't have the machines to do it) then found one called pro tyres who said £31 per camber. im pretty much a noob on all this so wouldn't know. shall look at few of these links.
-
as JV said price is about right, this is 4 wheel alignment they are talking about here.

will make it even easier
www.alignmycar.co.uk
going rate for a FULL laser alignment on the front end, and all 3 or 4 adjustments ( one or 2 track rod ends ) will be about £60
people will say they got theirs done cheaper etc
this comes with a full print out of before and after with settings / limits specifically for your vehicle
mine cost £30, but i get trade prices :smiley:

Everyone uses search function, no one discusses anything = boring forum.

This.
I've used one of the authorised garages in the past and they were very good and also use the proper Hunter alignment equipment. The last time i had my mk3 set up was at Elite in Essex and was a very similar set up and also gave you print outs before and after of the full geometry, very professional and cost me £72 for them sort out the abortion that was left by the previous pikey garage.
