New Car - Steering Question

RoverSE · 2nd September 2013, 14:50

Hi all,

Picked up my new Rover 75 CDTi over the weekend and while everything seems fine all bar one thing:

The steering is slightly off centre to the left and the car pulls to the left when driving a straight line. I have checked and adjusted the tyre pressures should I get the alignment checked next?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks

sounds like your car needs the tracking checking , don't happen to have 18" wheels on do you ?

Mine was the same until I had the laser alignment done (thanks Rich and Jim). It was the steering alignment that was out.
