Title: Gti Tracking
Post by: MrJollygood on 26 November 2018, 18:40

So after spending most of my day off sorting out new tyres for the Gti after the girlfriend decided to drive along a kerb and pick up two punctures late last night (see my other thread about winter tyres) it was apparent that the tracking / alignment needs doing.

The Kwiksh!tfit who supplied the tyres only had the data for a 2017 non-Gti Golf so I declined to have it done. Can anyone point me to the correct data for a 2013 Gti PP - my local tyre shop has a Hunter set-up so I'll take it there at the weekend.

Cheers,

Greig

If your local has Hunter equipment then they'll have the correct settings.

Yup, they have Hunter equipment  :smiley:

Just wondered if anyone had the correct settings so I can be 100% sure or if anyone had their own settings that they recommend.

Perhaps it doesn't make too much difference on the Golf, I don't know, but my old Elise was hyper sensitive to how it was set-up.

Thanks,

Greig

I doubt there's any different between 2013 and 2017, considering 2017 is a face lift? I'd be surprised if it affects tracking.
