Fao Tyre fitters/Trackers

[jones91]

I went to have my wheels tracked a few days ago, and afterwards they said that I've got to take it back in a few days and leave the car with them, when the trackings "settled in" so they can make more adjustments. Is there actually any reason for them to need the car back at all, as I'm a bit suspicious that they just want me to leave the car there so they can take it for a bit of a test drive

Cheers :y:

Never heard that.

If you take it back just stay, tracking doesn't take too long at all!

Bollocks lol

bag of shit mate, if they want it back they obv wanna rag your car or they ain't done it right in the first place lol

[jones91]

Thought it sounded like a load of bollocks lol, tempted to go so I can catch one of the cheeky cunts in the act

They aint done your tracking and want you to go back to actually do it lol

"settled in" sound like a bunch of chancers my good man, heed the forums advice on this one.

Take it back and wait around for it to get done or wait down the road to see if they do take it out

[jones91]

Yeah I thought this was the case guys, just wanted to make sure with you lot that you all thought the same too

I would take it there and wait down the road but the cars on its last legs and sort of need it to last me a bit lol

Cheers for all the comments everyone :)

Some garages are just chancing bstads.:homme:

My tracking was so bad the garage asked me to pop it back in to re-check the tracking once it had settled, but then I sold the car so didn't bother :)

[Tamshoe]

Did you end up taking it back to them 'once your tracking had settled'?

If car is on its last legs maybe there is a lot of wear in the suspension and they have attempted to allow for it in the track setting ,so want it back to see if still at the setting they made?
highly unlikely they want to drive your car --its not a super car as previously said just go back and wait while they check it

Lol no I didn't go back in the end, I was going to go to try to catch them out but couldn't be arsed with the hassle in the end

And the cars only done 71k, coilovers are pretty much new so are the track rod ends, so the car has plenty of life in it tbh, it's the fact that they told me to leave the keys with them which put me off tbh, and the fact some places will want to take out anything with a bit of poke in
