    Hey Guys who in Melbourne would you guys recommend to check over the alignment and install a sway bar and some brake pads?

    If you want quality then you have to pay.

    I know enough motoring enthusiasts in MEL that recomend him above all others that he & his guys must be very good.

    It's the same here in Sydney. A city of near enough 5 million & the same 2 places get recomended all the time - Heasemans & Spinning Wheel. There has to be a reason.

    edit: And yes, they both charge like wounded bulls.

    Hi Guys,

    I have only done 5000kms in my polo and already have a strong pull to the left. Have not had any major run-ins with curbs potholes that i can remember.

    Can anyone recommend a good place in Perth (preferably South of River) to get to get it checked out? Also should I be expecting this to be expensive to fix given you can not do a "normal" wheel alignment on polo?

    So...

    VW dealer says "we're to busy take it to a tyre place" and tyre place (well know chain) says "well for $55 we can do a rotation etc but we doubt it will fix it. If I was you I would take it back to the dealer its practically new"

    Not sure why getting your tyres/steering aligned is so difficult

    Appreciate any advice
