Aligning W202 C43

[DogWagen]

Got a bit of LH drift and outside edge front tyre wear on my C43 so I suspect that the alignment might be a bit out. Having just shelled out for a pair of new Contisports, I'm keen to get the alignment checked before they get trashed. So.....

Could any of you advise whether the W202 C43 suspension is adjustable front/rear and camber/toe? If it is, where are the bolts so I can make sure they're freed off in advance.

Can anyone recommend a place to get the alignment checked either in/around Southampton/Southsea during the week or Peterborough at weekends?

Thanks in advance

Mike

I see you've already come across wheels-in-motion on another thread - Tony comes very-highly reccomended. Could you arrange a Monday or Friday appointment on you way to/from work?

They do tend to drift to the left and the tyre wear you describe is fairly normal.

WIM should be able to help if an alignment is really needed.

As I am near portsmouth I will happily have a drive of your 43 for you to see how bad it is for free!

PS I have a 43 too.....
