2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 Autobiography Bonatti Grey

I just tired an accident repair place through that link but they said they only provide the alignment service for vehicles that are actually brought in for accident repair lol

I have contacted my nearest range rover specialist and they are arranging something now.

36/38 is deffo a harsher ride and I also notice alot of inside noise...squeaks etc over bumps/unven roads from the boot section and back seats.

I believed you the first time lol

I have contacted the garage and they said the machine they use is an American brand and where it is manfactured has no bearing on the performance of the equipment lol also mentioned that they do alignments for porsche, aston martins, range rovers etc and machine is updated every 3 months

Oh and have agreed to issue a full refund lol

Take the refund & go elsewhere.Its like my snapon mot bay,,its got SUN stickers on it which are a American company but equipment made in China.When you go for your refund ask them to show you where their equipment is made on the serial number plate & I bet it says made in PRC.

I don’t get any squeaks or creaks and I can’t comment on the noise as I’ve got a performance exhaust fitted which combined with the 5.0 engine means that road noise is the least of my audible worries lol. It is however harder and I may drop it again when my confidence in the British roads returns. Keep us updated with what the specialist says.

Sounds like to me, a siezed caliper would would make it difficult to turn a wheel but brake discs to tight??? They need to be tight, I think his choice of words were poor. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
