Wheel alignment on a Citroen C$
One of this weeks jobs was a Citroen C4 needing new front tyres. When I checked the old tyres, I found that both inner edges had worn through to the wires. This made me suspicious of the tracking, so I put the Supertracker alignment equipment on the car and checked the alignment, it showed a figure of -13mm when the correct setting should be -2.4mm. I showed it to the customer who agreed that I should correct the vehicle. He told me that a garage had recently changed the trackrods, so I guess they had not checked the tracking when replacing them. If you see bad tyre wear on your tyres it could be worth having us check your tracking as a correctly tracked vehicle will have better tyre wear and improved handling.
