Help needed quickly please regarding Geometry

[Martin.]

Dads taken the car to a place for its geometry. I've told them I want it all standard but with -2 degree camber on the front wheels.

However the guy has come across a huge list of standard options for Mk2 Clios.

He was asking me whether I knew if it was a setting for a D4D, D7D, D2E, K2F etc etc and loads of other random phrases I've never heard.

I've told him the engine code is F4R as I'm assuming this is along the right lines to what he is talking about. He doesn't know what they are though, I've just said it's probably the engine type.



Cheers for any quick replies

Sorted. He searched the list for F4R and has selected it. So it was just the engine variant. I'm assuming the other abbreviations are for other models.

Just tell him to set the front toe to parallel as a nice safe starting point, and the camber to 2 degrees IMHO although others will have their own preferred settings.

He cant adjust the back anyway.


EDIT: ah you are sorted now anyway then

That's what I said. Seems this place which is meant to be a huge tyre and wheel place near me don't know what they are doing.

Dad's telling me there's three of them looking at the machine and not doing anything.

Almost tempted to just take the car out.

How hard can it be to get wheels parallel and adjust a camber bolt accurately lol
