Front end alignment - what are you paying?
Just put new tires on our 2002 325. The car does not seem to track as well
as it did before the tires were put on. I thought to have a front end alignment, but the dealer wants $250 (rip off!!) and is suggesting front bushings also.. for another $600.. rip off #2. Just interested in what you are paying for front end alignments? Thanks Scott |

The only tricky thing about BMW alignments is they specify that the car be "loaded" with a certain amount of weight in each of the seats before the alignment is checked / adjusted. -- -Fred W |

You've probably already covered this, but have you checked the tire pressures? Check the plaque on your doorjamb - probably around 29 lbs. front and 33 rear when cold. Tom K. |
