  • Primera Xenon Headlamps 1 Aug 2006 (Forum)

  • Wheel Alignment - Ford Mondeo 29 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    Is a 12mm difference in longitudinal alignment across the front wheels on a Ford Mondeo within manufacturing specification? I have a friend who has managed to come to this deviation by unknown means, but, to me it seems a tad too much. Is it worth him having a wheel alignment, or maybe getting it jigged.

  • Wheel alignment using a piece of string 22 Nov 2011 (Forum)

    The outer edges of the front tyres are wearing much more than the rest so I think two new tyres plus wheel alignment is in order. Can't remember the last time had to do this so recommendations for some where in Greater Belfast please. Happy Christmas. Alan.

  • Wheel tracking/alignment query 15 Jun 2002 (Forum)
    Can somebody explain to me what the difference is between wheel tracking and wheel alignment, or are they infact the same thing? Additionally does a wheel alignment procedure include realigning the steering wheel with the road wheels, or is that another procedure again? I recently had a pair of new tyres fitted to my Focus to replace those on the front, then had the front and rear wheels switched to put the fresh rubber at the back, and didn't get the tracking etc checked at the same time.
