Talking of suspense, what did they find ?

There was a U clamp loose or missing on the steering rack, so they've replaced/fixed that, but it's not improved it much I was going to take it back in this week but cancelled as I'm going to swap the suspension back to standard this weekend instead first therefore saving labour costs and hopefully eliminating something else before incurring more costs (other than £8 on bolts which I don't mind too much). I can do the suspension myself, it just takes me at least twice as long as it would take most people - I suffer badly from lack of self-motivation!

Hope you can sort it. By the way what setting have you got your dampers on ?

I haven't the faintest idea anymore, I set them up years ago! I'll reset them back to zero and start again if I find it's not them causing the problem, I only want to fit standards temporarily so I can see if the problem is still there or not.

Suspension changed last weekend (I've gone back to Spax socks with blue springs), and still the pulling exists. Aaarrgghhh! Very frustrating But I did find that I first posted about it pulling left 6 years ago, so now I'm thinking that I've lived with it for that long, I can carry on living with it. Before giving up completely on it though, I shall have a chat with Jerry one he's back from swanning around Europe(!) and see if he has any final ideas I can try.

Sorry! Things have been hectic of late to say the least I had the CV boot fixed and swapped the suspension (again) and took it back to bog standard, but it just made the pulling issue even worse than it was. Then it was back into the garage for them to have a final look at it to see if they could identify the problem - they found it needed a new upper arm as it had been bent previously, and a few other bits, possibly subframe as well. It was a pretty tough time decision-wise, I'd got to the point of hating the car and not enjoying it at all, it was being left parked up while I used Andy's instead but I still couldn't decide whether to repair it or not. Finally decided that it needs too much money spending on it now what with the respray and other issues, so it has to go While still mulling over what to do next, another TF came up in a colour that I'd been wanting for quite some time - I'll continue over in a new thread so as I don't forget where I've posted pics! theswmgf.proboards.com/thread/3885/another-new-tf
