DannyB Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 Just fitted a new front roll bar and a new cv boot to the n/s/r of my A3 Quattro( involved removing rear swinging arm ) Anyone know anywhere decent to get the 4 wheel alignment done in the North east of England?(Cleveland area) Only place I know is Town and Country in Middlesbrough. Roughly what would the cost normally be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunbridge Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I had my Mini Cooper done after I rebuild the front sub frame. Unfortunately the place I got it done is now closed but from memory it was about £40. I think North East Tyres and Exhaust do it but I'm not a fan of their work. Have you tried C&S Tyres in Middlesbrough. I'm not sure if they have the gear but they are always spot on for tyres and usually very helpful. You could also try Volkswerk in Middlesbrough, I presume they must have the gear (or know somebody who does). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunbridge Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Also Teesside Audi have the gear. I had mine done today when they changed a suspension arm under warrenty but I'm guessing they are more expensive than everywhere else. It's always worth ringing, they may suprise you.

DukeDesmo Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I had mine done at Nottingham Audi, they eventually did it under warranty but I think they were asking for around £220 before they 'relented'. If you're paying for it I'd avoid the dealers, on the other hand you need to find someone competent (sorry can't help in that respect). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avus_Bub Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Phone a few large bodyshops. A quailty 4 wheel 'Geo' ramp is a MUST at a large bodyshop. Bodyshop labour is a third of mechanical too! BUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
