I’m going to do my front and rear brakes soon on my mk7 GLI I was watching a video and saw that some of the bolts are stretch bolts but the specific bolts weren’t shown. Which bolts do I have to replace? I bought the ATE semi metallic kit from FCP EURO
I was having issues with my alignment for about month. The car would drift and feel uneasy I bought new tires and knew it was time to get it sorted out. So I went to Firestone and they botched my alignment horribly the first time I took it 2 more times and they said the car had nothing wrong with the suspension. I finally just demanded my money back and took it to the VW dealer. They also did an inspection and found no suspension faults but that I have an uneven front right break pad wear 6/5. The car definitely feels better but I don’t know if it’s because I’m going crazy but very rarely it feels like it wants to drift again.
Once again I am having issues with my GLI drifting to the right. I went underneath and inspected bushings and joints and I couldn’t find anything wrong. I have also done the shock absorber test and found the car bounced up reasonably well 1-2 times. Like a previous person who was helping me on the post before I inspected for play and bent components and found none. The only component I had difficulty diagnosing were the strut towers themselves. I’m thinking I either have bad brakes causing a pull to the right or I have a bent strut.
Got some new tires put on the GLI and I knew it needed an alignment because the roads in my area are focking craters. And the car pulls to the right and felt a little unsteady. I took it for an alignment and they greened everything except for the front right camber and left caster I asked the guy why they didn’t fix it and he obviously explained to me that you can’t fix those values without unbolting the subframe and adjusting it. This is the alignment paper. Am I cooked or nah?
