Prodiguy02 Neutral Newbie August 29, 2014 Author Share August 29, 2014 Haha.. I remembered a few months ago when I brought the car for oil change, the mech at Autobacs mentioned that one of my shock absorber or suspension (can't rem) was leaking oil. I also forgot which side he mentioned liao. Which one of this is the one that leaks oil? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolli Clutched December 23, 2015 Share December 23, 2015 Dear forumners, Recently I have just changed my 4 tyres. After changing, I realized that the car will drift slightly to the left in a short moment. Previously it wasn't like that, I could go straight for as long as I wanted without even literally touching the steering wheel. A week later I went to do a wheel alignment and the person gave me a paper saying "L -0.41 , R -1.12". After alignment, the car was still drifting to the left without much improvement. I asked the mechanic what was the problem, and he showed me that the front left tyre is nearer to the door than the front right tyre. May I know what causes this, and what can I ask the next mechanic to check on? Any advice is greatly appreciated! So has you found the problem? Mine also drift to the left after alignment. I just changed my left drive shaft cover and did a wheel alignment. then after that keep drifiting to the left liao. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kb27 Supersonic December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 Recently I went to Sim Huat tyres to do wheel alignment, bcuz the front tyres suddenly wear out. They found a lower arm bushing worn out. But they still charge me for alignment. I had to do the repair, but didn't go back to them, bcuz the w/s sent it elsewhere to align. I think Sim Huat is ok. Had they not discovered the worn bushing, it would have been an alignment in futility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky2007 Turbocharged December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 my 'PERSONAL' comment, autobacs the knife very sharp,lol My friend changed a Michelin Primacy 225/55r17 there for $370 per tyre 2 years ago. Upside to brand new 18" rims few weeks ago at another tyre shop together with new sets of 245/45r18 at $2000.. paid $1000 aka $250 per 18" tyre. Very strange on Autobacs pricing.
