Front end alignment, requiring replacement of both inner tie rods, outer tie rod ends, camber belt, shim and all 4 tires. Two more parts need to be replaced on both sides for the alignment to be 'as correct as it can be made'. Rather lousy alignment discovery since vehicle was marketed as not needing any alignments when first sold in 2006! |
