Wheel Alignment Service Intervals and Warning Signs

Service professionals recommended a Porsche or Audi Wheel Alignment Service for your vehicle every year or whenever you replace your tires. However, if you experience any of the following issues, we recommend an appointment to check your alignment:

Uneven tread wear
Vehicle pulls to the left or the right
Your steering wheel is off centre when driving straight
Steering wheel vibration

Misalignment leads to the following tire issues:

Feathering: Tread is smooth on one side and sharp on another
Camber Wear: Either the inside or outside tread is more worn than the centre tread

Part Worn Tyres Braintree Wheel Alignment Service Package

Family Car Centre uses Hunter alignment machines for our Porsche and Audi Wheel Alignment Service package. Service technicians place targets on each wheel from which sensors take measurements. A computer, then, compares these measurements to those in our database, which contains specifications and limits set by manufacturers. If current measurements are out of specification, the computer provides a real-time reading in order to adjust it to the correct measurement. Our service includes:

Inspection of suspension and steering systems, including air pressure and tire condition
Vehicle is placed on the alignment rack, where sensors are mounted and compensated
Print initial wheel alignment readings
Camber, caster, and toe angles are adjusted according to Porsche and Audi specifications
Print final wheel alignment readings
Test drive the vehicle
Depending on test drive the vehicle could be placed back on the alignment rack

Our combination of machine and test drive alignments requires that we keep your vehicle for 1.5 hour for the alignment service.
