[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 338703, member: 4527"] Hmnn..... good question.. Last check was 2.1... many moons ago, I think 08Q2.. :p :D Update*** This is the reading for my alignment before adjustment.. [IMG]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b161/klchew/E90/E90alignment.jpg[/IMG] Sorry don't have after adjustment figures because I was caught unaware when they finish the job and remove the equipment from my wheels, all readings gone. I managed to get a glimpse at the monitor right before they remove the equipment and my rear camber both side was -ve 1.10 I asked if the -ve 1.10 is still too aggressive to my rear tyres, the sifu say the factory recommendation is -ve 1.20 and -ve 1.10 is within the allowable tolerance (reading remain in green color) and tyre wear friendly. I was having more than 3/4 tank of fuel, so with that load, I am alright with the settings. The "sifu" say if our rear camber go -ve 0.XX, our E90 will not be as stable and not nice to drive. :eek: Let see how it goes... By the way, I also found out our front camber is NOT adjustable and best of all I ask them to check my long-over-due-tyre-pressure-check tyres. Guess what!? They are all still in perfect pressure!! :eek: still with 2.2/2.4 (warm) :D Looks like I don't have to check my pressure for the next 24 months.. :p I wonder my new setting (less aggressive rear camber) is nice to drift.. :p [/QUOTE]
