Allroad alignment
Hi everyone! New to AudiWorld, just bought an allroad 5 days ago and am enjoying it very much. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good alignment shop in Jersey? I'm in Jersey City. The car doesn't pull to any side, it's just that the steering wheel is a little off centered and it bugs me. Not the road as it did that when I drove the car back from VA. Does the allroad need any special equipment or will any alignment shop do the job? Thanks for the suggestions and would definitely like to go to any future GTG. Thanks.

allroad (not Allroad ;-) needs a special treatment and an experienced shop, the subframe plays a
role in the alignment process as well; so any "normal" shop usually doesn't know how to do this.
Furthermore, the difficulty lies within the correct setup to configure/test the 402 ride height first before touching the alignment. This requires at least a VAG/COM or 1552 tool and the procedure inclusive knowing when to use Jack mode etc pp.
Find a tuner close by (KMD?) or a good Audi Shop (Riverside?) to get it done, do NOT use one of these fast food lube and Pizza places.

Yep. like Rubinho said that the new Honda will be better this Year; better than a Toyota Prius maybe
they are still filling the bottom of the time sheets....3.5 seconds off? Any MB Diesel has better chances ;-)
Seriously, Honda is more of a disappointment than Toyota, I get the feel they may act like Ford/Jaguar and withdraw from F1 and stick with Champcars or so. Perhaps Ross can turn the table.....and hire MS as test driver :-)

I am just glad toyota shows early pace
I think thay replaced the the Camry engine they had last year with a FIA certified v8...
Ross brawn can do so much this year. He needs to learn the team and the car and that is another year but Rubbens will tell him like it is
