Hello all,

Has anybody got any idea what the wheel alignment settings are on an S3? When i bought the car a couple of months ago the two front tyres were very worn on the inner edge, but the rest of the tyre was only half worn (just illegal - annoying). Just put some new tyres on for the MOT and would like to check all the aliments. Also, i would like to check the rear, as the car also had a new trailing arm fitted in July, and there is no sign in the history that the alignment was checked after fitting, the previous owner fitted it himself.

Any settings and experiences of similar problems would be greatly appreciated.

Melvin
