All about 5mm or so. All look even. Was fine at service and MOT. FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues

As long as your 100% sure as the phenomenon your describing is symptomatic of tyres that are reasonably worn and have been moved from their original axle position.

I had my rear pads replaced a few months ago and if they did rotate the wheels, they didn't mention it. FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues

No, I've only noticed it in the last few days. I actually had the alignment checked and corrected when it was icy back at the start of the year as I slipped and bumped a kerb.

yes sounds like your alignment is out, have it checked.

Can only suggest another wheel alignment and inspection for any damage which could be causing this.

OK, I'll try and get a chance to get the alignment checked - should be less hassle than taking it to the dealers. FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - so many issues

Chuckalicious - Have you ever sorted this problem? I am having it too, and my mechanic told me that both Left and Right Lower Control Arms will need replacing soon. Thanks |

Can't say I've noticed to be honest. It never got any worse and if it is still doing it, I don't notice it.
