Default Anyone know the "Alignment specs".........

i went to get my car aligned and in the computer that they use they dont have the "alignment specs" for the tC, so they used the xa's specs first and it still swerved slightly to the right. then they used the xb's specs and it still swerved to the right. they told me that they need the "alignment specs" for the tC since they dont have them and they were saying that the xa/xb specs are the same and i was like wtf? anyone know them or know how to get them?did a search and didnt find anything.

the specs that they need are:
TOE
CAMBER
CASTER

actually, XA specs worked pretty well for me, just the right... I didnt need any adjustment amazingly after that pot hole, so I doubt the specs are far off at all.

Why the hell would they use specs for a different car? "We don't have specs for the Mustang, so we used the specs for the Focus." Does that make sense?

Anyway, use the links below to grab the alignment files:

Front Alignment
Rear Alignment

dude, the same exact problem happened to me down here in plano, TX. I had to go to the dealership (sports City Toyota) 3 times before they could get it done right. The problem with not getting the correct specs on the machine occurred and after trying three times, the service manager told me that he would call me back when his system got updated. About a week and a half later, I called him up, asked him about it and he told me to come in and get it fixed. So, in all essence, the dealership on 635S has the proper knowledge of the allignment and would know exactly what you're talking about if u told them whats going on. They all know me now cuz I bugged them multiple times during that horrific period and now my tc is finally up to par.
