Guys not too sure if you could spare me yur thoughts.I did my wheel alignment at Lim Tyres today as my car was pulling to the left. Finally the "sifu - ah kiong" told me the best way to solve was to do cambering on my front 2 tyres.The issue of pulling to the left is solved but now my steering feels too light especially if i take a corner or speed above 120km.Is it a normal thing, safe; will it handles the same or it totally distort the factory setting.Btw are all 3 series E90 especially the 2011 models pulls to the left?Will appreciate the help.Thanks
 
Yes, mine pull to the left too, no matter what i do to it, it'll still pull to the left. :(

I was told the front camber is not adjustable, so to adjust it, we need a camber/caster kit.

How much ah kiong do the cambering? Can you explain more about this to me? Thanks in advance. I think the steering will feel lighter when you travel at higher speed. It think it's normal. Any sifu out there can help?

THanks.
 
Its RM120 for a wheel therefore totaled RM240. Honestly don't really like the feel of lightness in it right now as i don't feel too confident on it. Thinking off going back to the original setting if its a norm for the car to drift to the left.

This is definitely no joy at all
 
Rm 120 for a wheel.. Any hardware installed to make it work? I'm kind of confuse how he do it. So you mean when parking, you can feel the steering is much lighter compare to the original settings?

Doubt he did installed anythin on it. The car feels lighter when i am taking a corner; gone were the heavy feel of the steering and when the car travels at 120km and above it feels a little lighter as compare to the original setting. Don't feel the sterring response...
 
THanks for the info. Where exactly is the tyre shop? I don't mind giving it a try cause i am really frustrated on the pulling thingie.
Pls do give me the contact of the person so i can call up to ask what actually been done to it. If it really sucks, then the only thing you should try to get the camber/custer kit. Can improve handling too. Some of the forummers using it and feedback is good.
Cost around 1k +-
 
Just go over and asked for Ah Siong; surname is Wu. Just tell him a 320d white got done today and he will do the same setting for you; if you don't mind the lightness :)
 
Hehehe bro, i'm from Penang. So i don't really know where is lim tyres. But i'm willing to drive down there to give it a try. Because you can't find anyone in Penang that has the ability to do this. Or anyone in PG can recon?
 
you can google them Lim Tyre; its next to the petronas station at TTDI *1-Utama,

Easy to find actually if you are coming from Penang. Exit out at the Damansara Highway and head on towards TTDI (follow the signboard)
