Laser Tracking

[daviebroon]

While i was getting 4 new tyres yesterday, i noticed my tracking was badly out... so got the monkey at the garage to do it on his laser machine thingy.

Only thing is... it now pulls badly to the right under acceleration and braking.

He went by the chart on the wall which just said Clio II (00-03) and was something like -1.0 / 1.0 ?? Can't remember.

Does anyone know what the settings are for the cup/sport? Is it the same as any other clio.... or not? I know the cup has a greater castor angle, and increased track front and rear... would this need to be taken into considerarion?

no one?

is your car lowered?

Suspension settings for the Cup is different I'll try and find it at work Monday.
To be truely correct you need to have the car height measured and set up off that not just of what it is like standing still as full of fule etc will affect the setup if you want to get truly accurate.

my car is standard mate.

I didn't know you had to have it set up by height etc. If you've got the settings... that'd halp loads... i'll just take it back in and tell them to alter it to that.

thanks

i had the tracking done on my cup the other week.. never been right since!!!
taken it back twice..
Then had it done at renault dealer when it was in having rear brake discs replaced & it's now better but slightly to the left now..

i had the fracking done on mine in jan , before it was done the car handle fine no pulling cornering seemed fine but it needed doing due to me having it lowered on coils.

but after it was done to correct setting slightly toed in etc, the car was fine straight line as before but corning was vastly inproved , along with the power put down better on corners

My dealer charges £40.50 for tracking.
