Default alignment problems and recal question?

I had the tie rods replaced on my car when it had the 60000 mile service for free due to the recal. Now at 68000 my tires are wearing bad and uneven even with correct tire preasure and it pulls hard to the right, is there a chance the new tie rods are ****ty as well and if so will audi replace them with out a warranty.

Default hmmmm

do you rotate your tires?

if the car pulls then you need an alignment... those are about $180 at the stealership. Looks like you are a noob by your AID.

New tie rod ends are available from ecs you can buy a pair of them and put em in... but you will need an alignment.

The only adjustment on the B5 is done with the tie rods. There is no camber adjustment unless you buy adjustable control arms.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com">http://www.ecstuning.com</a</li></ul>
