steering not straight

[Guest powebird]

hello bros and sis,

i did my wheel alignment a week ago in sin ming n was particularly happy when the ah pek told me tat my car rear alignment is very good (meet specs), he only adjested my front wheels and fater tat asked me to drive....

when i drive on a straight rd yes the car is very obedient coz it does not sway to the left or right

but after driving for a few hours i noticed that my steering wheel is inclined to the left a bit..means it doesnt sit horizontally when i drive on a straight rd....

so now my concern is shld i send back to the workshop to straighten the steering wheel, or this is normal for a steering wheel to incline a bit..??

i a bit uncomfortable driving with a steering in tat nature...

thank u all

usually, shd go to a tyre shop like stamford tyre etc where they have 4 wheel alignment.. they use special equipment to align the car. cots about SGD$80, for 4 wheels but with some sweet talk.. they usually charge SGD$40.

Also consider checking to see if your tyre pressure is regulated and u may want to consider high speed wheel balancing etc.. to make your ride more shiok...good luck

Hi bro, does it mean u have to turn ur steering slighty to the left to keep straight? I encounted that before and wheel alighment did not help. My workshop help me chage the lower arm(i don't know how its related, doesnt make sense to me) but spending about 200 it does correct the steering
